Had to do the essay and aptitude test. Got rejected after. Was not even considered for the position. Not a good experience. the manager just clicked me away on the service they have without even reviewing my application. Feels like a waste of time, considering how long the process is

Question 1
Essay questions about my engineering experience education customer facing experience and why I chose to apply for Corona
Very negative experience. Thank god i was not selected and not wasted any more time with them.
I spend a whole weekend writing a 40 page interview answering their questions about high school etc.
Then they invited me to an aptitude test that I had to do (as they told me) in my native language. The questions in the test were poorly translated to my language probably from google translate a decade ago (with missing articles and poor grammar) and most of them did not make any sense. I got ghosted after that. Throughout their process I did not had the opportunity to speak or contact any real person. Everything was just an automated human-less process.
In my day work I work on their products as well on their competitor's (Red Hat, Mirantis, Suse etc) products on various customers . Their behaviour on their customers is similar, so I don't wonder why they treat like that their applicants and I can only image how they treat their employees.
