First, there were some psychometric tests. After that, I was shortlisted for a virtual interview. They asked questions like 'tell us about yourself' and 'how do you fit into the company.' They require good lighting and audio. My network cut out mid-interview and I skipped a question.

I applied online and heard back about a month later for an interview with the Postilion Realtime team. I spoke with the team manager, two technical folks, and an HR person. The technical questions were mainly about my Postilion experience, like how it works, debugging, and design choices. They also asked standard HR questions about my job search and past roles. The technical interviews were fine, but the HR person seemed unprepared and a bit rude, reading my CV for the first time during the chat. I haven't heard back in about three weeks, so I'm assuming it didn't work out. I think the next steps would have been assessments, but I would have turned it down anyway because I found out during the interview that the job involves regular standby support, which wasn't in the ad and would have made me not apply if I'd known.

Confirmed questions5 questions
  • Standard HR questions and Postilion technical questions.
  • Do you have experience with Postilion and can you describe how it works, how to debug it, and any design choices you'd make regarding it, as well as any plugin experience you have with X product?
