The people who greeted me were polite. The interview lasted about an hour. The interviewer asked about my previous experience, education, how I handle workload, working under pressure, and my experience in full detail. They also asked about system knowledge.

I had a few phone interviews and then one in-person one at their office. They were going to set up another in-person interview with some more senior people, but then they just stopped communicating. I followed up by email a bunch of times. Not sure what happened, but it was super unprofessional, no matter if they wanted to hire me or not.

Got there early and had a bunch of paperwork before meeting the recruiter. Was expecting some tests but none happened. The front desk people were really nice and helpful. The whole thing took about an hour. Seems like they only want younger people, maybe because of clients. Sent a thank you but didn't hear back, guess they're not interested if you're over 30.

The initial recruiter call sounded promising, but they were unclear about the specific job I was interviewing for. I was then given a stack of paperwork and left alone in a closed room, apparently forgotten. It was a strange situation, sitting there wondering if anyone would return. After completing the paperwork, I had to leave the room myself and inquire about the interviewer's whereabouts. I found him in another room talking with other staff, seemingly unaware that the interview was unfinished and that he had left me waiting without concluding. The entire experience felt odd and rude. They mentioned they would follow up, but never did. It was a complete waste of time. I suspect they bring candidates in for interviews just to meet their weekly or monthly quotas. Their vagueness about the job, even when I asked questions, made me question if the role was even legitimate. My advice: ask very specific questions about the job they present before agreeing to invest your time and money in an interview. Confirm the job offer is real and try to ascertain the start date.
