I applied August 2016 and was contacted via email a week later asking for my availability. My phone interview was going to be with a recruiter from Dublin, Ireland which I found weird because I was applying for a position in Austin, TX. When the day came to have the interview, the guy called in 30 minutes late! I brushed it off and asked him how he was doing, he said I've been better..actually, can we reschedule. He didn't give me a reason why but I was nice and agreed. We rescheduled for a date in September. The day came and he was 15 min late, said he was commuting home and just got off the train. At this point, I'm getting even more frustrated since he was the one who said he'd be available at such time. Again he asked if we could reschedule since he was not prepared. Unfortunately, I agreed and we set another date. That date came and he was 2 HOURS LATE to the phone interview. I make sure to leave him an email everytime he is 15 min late to the interview asking him when would be a good time to reschedule. He called me 2 HOURS LATER and had asked me if this was still a good time to talk. I told him that our interview was 2 hours ago and that I am busy now, which I was! I agreed to another rescheduled interview, and this would be my last straw. On the day of my interview, he called me 30 MINUTES before my interview. I was finishing up something else and had to leave it only to have a generic 15 min interview. This was on a Friday afternoon, and he said he would talk to the people in the department if I should advance. On Monday exactly at 9 am I got an email from him saying I would not move forward. I was angry because it seemed as if there was no effort from them to think about my candidacy and I spent a month just trying to go through the first interview. This has been the worst interview experience of my life. Please don't go through what I did. Quantcast please teach your recruiters, especially the guy from Ireland, to be considerate and professional!!!! What I went through was unacceptable!!!!

It was informative, and not very stressful. The technical part consisted of basic SQL questions. Quantcast is an interesting company with interesting people. The interviewers were very nice, and they asked reasonable questions pertinent to the job.
