Proved not really serious and a simply a waste of time. I went through the entire recruitment process, having first the recruiter and then the hiring manager confirm that the role was fully remote only to be rejected at the end because of my remote location and despite very good feedback. The entire process took roughly a month. First there were three "standard" steps: * short call with the recruiter * 1h meeting with the hiring manager + team captain (an engineer from the team I was applying to). This included some light technical questions * 2h technical meeting with two engineers from the team. Included a live coding portion and then questions/discussion. We finished early and I got to ask a good amount of questions from my side At this point, according to what I've been told in the beginning, they should've come back with the decision, but instead I was only told that the feedback from the technical round was very positive and that a director from Gdansk wants to meet me for an additional 1h. This final meeting only lasted 20-30 minutes and was mainly about how often and for how long I can come to the office in Gdansk. The initial proposal was every month for a few days, to which I was reluctant as I live a few hundred kilometers away. I was then asked if every 3 months would work and I had no issues with that. I also said I'd be open to come to any in-person all-team meetings, company events etc. Despite all that, previous assurances about role being remote and the fact that the team is spread across at least three offices I got a rejection call from the recruiter a few days later saying that the location was the main reason for not extending an offer.
