I applied for the Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Java/React) role and unfortunately had a difficult experience with the interview process. What didn’t go well: Significant delays in communication: After completing the coding challenge, I did not receive any updates for almost two months. There were no status emails or check-ins during this period, which made the process unclear. Unanswered questions: I asked for clarification about the role before the technical interview, but I did not receive a response. This contributed to uncertainty about expectations. Misaligned requirements: After such a long process, I was informed that my experience did not fully match certain technical expectations (for example, tools like GraphQL). If specific technologies or years of experience were essential, it would have been helpful to communicate this early in the process. Process felt unstructured: The timeline and coordination across steps felt inconsistent, which resulted in avoidable delays. Final thoughts: I value transparency in hiring processes, and this one had room for improvement. Candidates dedicate time and effort to challenges and interviews, so timely communication is important. I hope the company reviews its process and enhances communication and clarity for future applicants.
