      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      11 Sept 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Edinburgh, Scotland
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Travelnest (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Aug 2024

      Interview

      First stage was a chat with the Engineering Manager just going over previous experience. Second stage was a culture interview going over the usual culture questions to make sure it was a good fit for both sides. Third/Fourth stage was a take home test followed by a 2 hour Tech Interview that consisted of chatting through your solution to the take home test and then a systems design portion. I was asked if I could move the Tech Interview closer as they wanted to fill the positions quickly. Which I did, having to take a holiday from work to accommodate. After the interview I had a wait of 6 days, ridiculous considering they wanted to move quickly. I then received a generic email stating they no longer wanted to move forward with the advertised position. No feedback given, no reason given. I then asked for them to clarify how they could ask me to move up my interview date to suit their timelines only to then have the role pulled. No response. Very unprofessional. If this is how they treat prospective employees I would avoid them at all costs!
