Entretien
HR: Spent the entire call digging into every microscopic detail of my current role, compensation, bonuses, learning budget—yet provided *zero* transparency about Paymob’s own compensation structure. One-sided from start to finish.
Technical: The process is unnecessarily long: a technical interview, then a task, then a second “get to know you” chat—which is absolutely not a chat. It’s another technical screening, and if you’re not fully prepared, it will backfire.
Let’s be honest: Paymob, you are not Amazon or Meta to justify a process this bloated.
And of course, no feedback if you’re rejected. If you insist on putting candidates through an extensive, multi-stage process, the bare minimum is to show basic respect and send a proper response.
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
HR: The entire conversation was an interrogation about my current job:
What’s your salary?
Do you get a bonus?
What learning opportunities do you have?
Meanwhile, she provided zero information about Paymob’s own salary ranges, bonuses, learning support.
Completely one-sided and unprofessional.
Technical Interview Process:
A. First technical interview: a full 1-hour live coding session. Fair enough.
B. Take-home task: extremely complex and paired with an unrealistically tight deadline—clearly designed to test pressure more than actual skill.
C. Second technical interview: marketed as a “chat” or “get to know you,” but in reality it’s a 1.5–2 hour technical evaluation disguised under a friendly label. This lack of transparency is a red flag in itself.
hr interview followed by an online test that was unnecessarily difficult, then a technical interview depending on team acquiring the team member. could probably range from a couple of theoretical questions to problem solving that doesnt have to be leetcode related and could be debugging oriented
