      Senior Front End Engineer Interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Stash (New York, NY) in Jul 2020

      Interview

      STOP! Do not give this organization any of your time! If you are reading this, you're probably about to be involved in Stash's hiring process. This is one of the most unprofessional interview processes I have ever been a part of. Scheduled a brief 30 minute call with a technical recruiter. This was the only part of this process that was not utterly unprofessional and a waste of time. Call went on as scheduled and talked about my history and how I could possibly fit into this role. Standard phone screening conversation. I was notified that I would be receiving a take home assessment. I would have a week to complete this assessment - but it should only take a few hours. After I send it in, I was told they would review it and I would hear back from them. This is the last bit of normalcy in this entire process. The take home was a simple project of construct a form with an input and a submit that requests data from the Giphy API. Users should be able to click on a gif to select it as a favorite, and have the ability to view their favorites. No UI direction provided - in fact the spec specifically mentions this as an opportunity for you (the person applying for a Software Engineering position) to demonstrate your design skills. No application scaffolding is provided so you have to create this from scratch. No mentions of pagination - however Giphy's API provides it. No mention of which set of image data from their API you should be using - this is all just a guess on your part hoping you choose what the reviewer wanted. After completing the take home, I sent a link to the zipped archive of my code to the recruiter. In this email I asked to confirm receipt and let me know if any issues. After 24 hours of silence after my initial send of the take home, I reached out again to the recruiter to see if they received my submission. Again nothing. After 3 weeks of hearing nothing and all contact attempts being ignored I finally heard back from the recruiter. The next step is a 4 hour interview with 4 different levels of their staff - whiteboarding/system design. Oh! but the role changed. The front end role is now fullstack and is now in a language they've never mentioned using, nor is it listed on my CV. This conversation lead to a discussion on scheduling the 4 hour interview - which based on previous conversations I don't expect to happen. It has been over a week since that conversation and I have yet to receive any calendar invites. Stash will give you a take home assessment - and then ghost you. This is completely unprofessional and unacceptable. Do not waste your time in this process.
