ITX Corp. Interview Questions
& Process

The hiring proccess was about 3-4 steps, all interviews, no challenge or technical exercise. Each interview was around 40-60 minutes. I had to talk about my professional experience, my background, the type of projects I've worked on, and why I was looking for a new opportunity. It was a bit repetitive because the second and third interviews had different interviewers but covered similar topics. First, I met the UX Mentor and UX Coordinator to discuss technical processes, design, and a specific project. Then, I spoke with Account Managers about potential customer roles, but it felt like repeating what I'd already said. It would have been better if the account managers were part of the second technical meeting. Despite the repetition, the process was fine, and they gave feedback constantly. There was no ghosting or delays. I didn't get the position, but everyone was polite and nice. Hope it works out next time.

I attended 4 stages. First, a chat with the recruiting staff who were really nice and seemed genuinely excited about the role and the candidates. Then, a prep session with one of the project Leads where they explained the technical challenge format and content. After that, I had a technical challenge on the codinggame platform, with specific tasks for the role and technologies. Finally, an interview with the PM and team Leads, which included a code review and some reasoning and communication tests. I actually failed the technical test, but they still invited me to the next interview, which was a relief and gave me a chance to show my actual skills. I didn't get the job because there were better candidates. The interview experience was totally positive; the whole team was receptive and seemed to want me to have the best chance to prove myself. They kept me updated on my application status and explained the reasons behind their decisions.

First spoke with a recruiter, then met with the hiring manager and some peers in similar positions, and finally spoke with the EVP of Innovation. The people I interviewed with were all really enthusiastic and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me. The interviews were pretty laid-back and enjoyable, felt like a two-way street where I could also ask my own questions and get a feel for the company culture. The entire process wrapped up in about three weeks, which felt pretty quick.

The technical interview feedback was honestly very unprofessional with the comments received. Especially the one about lack of initiative after leaving my previous job, when in fact I was pushing a family business until three months ago before starting to work again. I was also training myself in topics of personal interest that applied to my professional development, which was clearly detailed in my CV. What initiative is lacking? And what does that have to do with the job offer? On the other hand, lack of experience in a particular technology is fine... I've used similar ones and can handle new things correctly, meaning it's not complicated and I can gain that experience in less than a month (being very pessimistic). And the icing on the cake was about a particular technology where my CV clearly shows I have 10 years of experience in a similar, much more complex and diverse one than the one requested. In IT, technologies change daily; what should be evaluated when selecting a resource is not knowledge in a specific technology, but the ability to learn and adapt to environments of absolute uncertainty. I cannot recommend this company under any circumstances. If an interview ended like this, imagine what the day-to-day might be like. It's no wonder they are desperately looking for resources (cheaply in Latin America, of course) because talent has fled.
