Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en NetApp (Cork) en nov 2024
Entrevista
Time waste -
1 HR Introduction call + 1 Manager Call (Casual Discussion on role) + 3 Technical Interviews (DSA, OS, Multi-threading + System Design and Puzzles + DSA). It took whole day for the interview. First interviewer was flat out rude and didn't even bother to exchange pleasantries.
Disrespectful Offer and didn't even acknowledge the first conversation. I already made my expectation clear shouldn't have wasted my time with such low offers that too even below my current compensation. That's not what someone expects after clearing these many rounds of interview.

I attended only the first round of the interview process, and since then I have not received any communication from the recruiter. There have been no follow-up emails, status updates, or information shared regarding the next steps or the outcome of the interview.

Coding Interview
1. Subset Sum
2. Return all subsets from the subset sum
The process started with a standard HR phone call.
Next was a conversation with a technical team lead. He didn't allow me to present myself properly - immediately after I shared just 2 brief points about myself, he requested to move to technical questions. He asked me to describe a complex technical project I worked on and questioned me mainly about handling failures.
The next stage was a project architecture presentation. I had checked with them in advance, and they were honest about it being an architecture review of a project I had designed. I prepared a presentation. Two interviewers joined - one asked about the project but seemed not to understand parts of it and didn't request clarifications, despite my emphasis that he should ask if anything wasn't clear.
He was impatient and didn't let me finish explaining all the project components. He wasn't very patient and jumped straight to questions without letting me explain the complete system flow first.
Afterward, they sent an insulting and generic email saying they chose not to proceed. Both during the interview and after, I requested detailed feedback - they disappeared and provided no feedback. Unfair process, and I wouldn't recommend them.
