      Data Engineer Interview

      3 Aug 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Melbourne
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Common Code (Melbourne) in Jul 2020

      Interview

      "Common Code" also advertises roles as "Managed Functions". Consisted of a short coding test right of the bat. I aced the test by the way. The issue here is that their recruitment team is unconsidered and lazy, that is, they didn't even bother to look at my CV to figure out if my skills and experience fit their expectations BEFORE sending me the coding test. They obviously do this on purpose to minimize the number of CV's they need to analyze. It doesn't matter that it took only 20 minutes of my time (mostly because I just installed a brand new Ubuntu distribution, so had to setup Python and Jupyter). HR is getting paid to analyze my CV and figure out if I match the role (something that they are often extremely incompetent at). I burned out 20 minutes of my time for nothing. Anybody that would have aced the test would expect to go to the next stage. They don't give a damn about developers. My time is worth nothing to them, obviously.
