      I interviewed at Black Swan Data

      Interview

      There was 1 stage face to face interview with a software engineer who clearly doesn't have an interview experience. Clearly there was noone suitable/available more than him. He asked me some java related questions and it was a "success" for the 30 min chat. This interview is done just for the sake of having face-to-face interview then they gave me a task. The task definition was a 2 page word document which prepared without too much care. It included variable names like date_time, which I have used without changing anything. The project i've built was satisfying the requirements and there were no bugs. but turned out that they were expecting it to be like a real-world project. One of the reasons was using variable date_time instead of camel case dateTime. It was my mistake to have accepted it in the 1st place. But I hate when they give you a word doc which carelessly prepared and then expect you to prepare something world class out of it.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      No interview process. They give people a sloppy word doc and expect them to spend days on it. Looks like they don't want to waste their time on interviewing, rather ask you to waste your time. And they reject you with an email.
