I applied online. I interviewed at ABBYY in Jan 2026
Interview
I went through two rounds of interviews and completed a take-home assessment that was fairly straightforward for someone with experience in the field. After submitting the assignment, I never received any follow-up communication regarding next steps or even a status update. I reached out to the recruiter and still received no response. It’s disappointing that in today’s hiring environment, some companies seem to overlook the importance of basic communication and candidate respect, especially after asking applicants to invest significant time in interviews and assessments.

Interview
I went through multiple rounds of interviews with ABBYY, including a final round, and every conversation left me with the impression that I was a strong candidate and very much in consideration for the role. The team consistently framed the process in a highly positive way, which made the outcome especially frustrating.
After completing the final round, I was completely ghosted. I followed up with multiple people involved in the process and never received any response or closure. No update, no rejection, no professionalism.
Regardless of whether a candidate is selected, basic communication and follow-through should be the bare minimum especially after asking someone to invest significant time in multiple interview rounds.
Based on my experience, I would not recommend spending your time interviewing here unless they seriously improve how they handle the candidate experience.
Pretty much straightforward, 4 steps, first with HR by phone, then an online meeting on Teams with a few questions on my interests and then the last two interviews were technical.
