I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Rootstack (Colombia, Caldas) in Jun 2024
Interview
I was contacted through LinkedIn, we exchanged initial information, the process was easy, with support from the company, the interviews were pleasant and quick. The interviews were: one with recruitment then a technical interview with the client and fanally yhe offer
There's something very odd about this company. I was told to provide a resume using one of their templates, while this practice isn't uncommon for some companies what was odd was that I had to remove any reference to my past employers and just mention the clients I worked for (usually it is the opposite) also they sent me a guide video on how to client interviews are done and they said you had to act like the projects you worked before were by Rootstack and basically pretend like you are already working with them.
I think they are basically poaching projects and resumes from candidates to put on their company portfolio to give the impression that they are bigger than they are.
The lack of feedback and the fact that they removed the access from the resume I sent are big red flags
Thank you for your feedback. We want to clarify a few points:
Resume Formatting: We request resumes in a specific format to ensure consistency and highlight relevant experience. This is meant to align with client needs, not to misrepresent backgrounds.
Interview Preparation: The guide video aims to help candidates feel prepared for interviews by understanding our projects. It is not intended to mislead or misrepresent.
Portfolio Integrity: We assure you that we do not use candidate resumes to falsely enhance our portfolio.
We apologize for any lack of feedback or issues with resume access. Your feedback is valuable, and we are looking into this matter. Please reach out to us directly at recruiting@rootstack.com for further discussion.
