J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Popmenu en févr. 2022
Entretien
The recruiter reached out to me to schedule a phone call and discuss the Software Engineer position. During the call, the interviewer pulled a bait and switch, telling me I wasn't qualified for the position (even if this were true, you could have seen this from a simple glance at my resume) and tried to persuade me to interview for a support engineer position instead. I was overqualified for the support engineer position, it would be sending my career progression back 2-3 years, offered lower pay, etc. She continued to push me in that direction despite my making it very clear I was not interested. It felt very dishonest and disingenuous.
I can certainly understand if I did not meet their requirements / qualifications, but it did not appear that this recruiter ever had any intentions of considering me for the position I had applied for, and had set up the call for. I would not recommend applying to this company.
It starts with an initial screening call which was by Zoom although I'd have preferred a phone call-> 30 min Hiring Manager Call -> Take Home Assessment which they estimated to take 2 to three hours -> Hour Interview with team

Two Interviewers were attended. A Software engineer, and a recruiter. They asked about normal previous experience and personality questions for only screening. Seems like they were really good company. Wanted to join, but don't now what I did wrong. lol

They wanted to interview me for a job I was overqualified for, instead of a role I felt that I was qualified for. They really do enforce the 'minimum years of professional experience' part of the job description in a very strict way, so beware of that. I've never had a potential employer focus so much on the pure number of years I've been working in this career, rather than the things I've learned and experiences I've had. I'm glad that I had other recruiters telling me that I ~was~ qualified for mid-senior positions because otherwise the interviewer at Popmenu might have made me doubt my worth. Obviously, every company has their own policies in hiring talent and I respect their opinions about what's important to them in that process. However, this strict policy is unusual based on my other experiences in this field and good to know if you're planning to interview with them.
