On LinkedIn this role appeared (advert) and I applied. After 4 days an HR Talent recruitment professional sent an email thanking me for applying and requested an introductory call. The call took place a week after this email. During that phonecall (no video call) the Talent recruiter asked some specific questions about what I had done in my career. It was clear that the Talent recruiter was specifically looking for experience similar to Databricks'. Although my CV is very clear on my background, the Talent recruiter asked quite a lot obvious questions quizzing me some on some basics. We concluded that the Talent recruiter had to check with the hiring manager whether I could be interesting to the team because it could be an issue that I had not worked yet in the context of Big Data. Although my CV was very clear on this, I managed to explain what experience I have with predictive analytics, RPA and Cloud. The Talent recruiter would come back to me after the weekend. On Monday after the weekend I received an email from the HR Talent recruiter. They thanked me for showing interest but due to lack of fit from a profile pov. IT was a default format email. From a company of this size, technical reputation and capabilities I expect more quality. A rejection is fine, but a cheeky email is so wrong. Further, one of the issues of a lot of Software Companies (a common flaw in the European branches) is that they way they search, find, select and qualify candidates is close to pointless. Too often do they seek copies of people they already know/have within the company and focus too heavily specific skillset and that gives the impression that - like Databricks in this case - they overestimate the work that they are doing which eventually leads to turning down great talents.
