      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Oct 1, 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesco (London, England) in Sep 2020

      Interview

      I've done a 3 stages in a row Systems Design, Coding, Leadership process. After 3 business day the internal recruiter said I had passed the interview and everything was ok. One day after they said they were producing the contract etc. Recruiter asked me about starting date etc. Another day and I asked about the offer and they said CTO had to sign the contract. Today I received a call saying "Sorry we're not proceeding" . I had dropped other potential positions in the meantime and I was even studying already about their technologies. If I look from the bright side I think luckily I am not going to work for a company that lacks organisation. I'd never recommend them to any developer.
