I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at UJET
Interview
The interview process started on a positive note, particularly during the initial and technical interviews, which were smooth, structured, and aligned with the role. These stages created a positive impression of the company’s hiring process and expectations.
The final interview, however, was disappointing. Although it was positioned as a discussion to understand mindset, approach, and team fit, it became another technical evaluation, giving the impression that earlier assessments were not fully trusted. Throughout the discussion, prior experience was repeatedly dismissed simply because it did not align with HIS own background or personal experience. Also, professional QA certifications achieved were also openly downplayed, despite the time, effort, and commitment they represent toward continuous learning and professional growth.
The overall tone of the conversation reflected a superiority-driven approach rather than a collaborative or open exchange.
Finally, when asked how QA team members under him, are recognized after a demanding and successful release, the response was that there is no form of reward or acknowledgment. This, combined with a dismissive interview tone, raised concerns about leadership approach and team culture and while the compensation offered may be competitive, the interview experience highlighted leadership and cultural issues that significantly outweigh the benefits of the role.

I applied online. I interviewed at UJET (Manila, Manila)
Interview
Interview Process is okay and smooth until you got into Tech Interview. The most disrespectful interview I’ve ever had. The interviewer expressed his opinion in a very unusual way about certifications. Quote “All qa who dont have cert are better than with certifications”. I find it also disrespectful that an interviewer act like he doesn’t have interest after hearing only my experiences and about myself until the end of interview.
