A very poor interview experience. I was interviewed by a highly junior person who was completely lacking in structure, methodology, or a proper guide for the conversation. Fundamental topics such as salary expectations, mobility, and key aspects of the role were never addressed. Instead, the dynamic felt less like a genuine talent evaluation and more like an attempt to fish for confidential information and market intelligence regarding the major companies I have previously worked for.
Additionally, several major cultural red flags came to light during the conversation: it was openly mentioned that they experience high attrition, and they pride themselves on rigidly forcing a 21-day time-to-fill metric at all costs. Combined with clear indications of micromanagement, it completely explains why they operate the way they do.
I truly do not recommend this company for recruitment processes; there is a total disconnect between the interviewers and what constitutes a serious, respectful selection process that honors a candidate's professional background
