I applied in-person. I interviewed at Persistent Systems
Interview
Interviewed and gave 3 rounds. HR requested for all documents and then ghosted me. Even after multiple followups they didnt provide any answer to the candidature. Sometimes I wonder if it karma that new joiners just ghost companies or these pathetic HR people
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Persistent Systems (Redding, CA) in Jun 2023
Interview
Questionable on integrity, honesty, and disclosure. Started interview with camera not working, they would not proceed with the interview unless they could "see" me. Yet, they had their cameras turned off...(very odd). Once I had my camera turned on, they immediately took a "picture" of me (without asking my permission). Gave no explanation or disclosure of what they were going to use my picture for. Company previously wanted my birthdate and last digits of SSN before signing any disclosure or contractual agreement. Mind you, I'm interviewing for a security position, I don't hand out my personal identify information (PII) let alone my personal health information (PHI). This is common practice. I don't see how companies can treat an interview differently from 'remote' versus 'onsite'. That would be a big red flag if someone wanted to take a picture of you before starting an interview in person. If this is how they treat outsiders, I would hate to see what they do with their employees....No thanks!
