      Senior Backend Engineer Interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at TrueLayer

      Interview

      I was given a take home challenge to complete. I got the impression that it was reviewed by an inexperienced developer. A lot of the feedback was factually incorrect. For example, they claimed my unit tests were not actually testing the code. This could easily be proven false by changing any of the logic and seeing the unit tests fail. Even more bizarrely I was given negative feedback because I did follow SOLID principles. The feedback I received from the reviewer came across as rude and condescending. I would like to think that they didn't intend for it to sent to me unfiltered. It was disappointing to put time into completing this challenge and have it dealt with in such an unprofessional manor.

      I’m sorry to hear about your experience of interviewing with us. We always try to offer valuable and prompt feedback to everyone, and we've fallen short on this occasion. I would like to look into this for you, and understand better where things went wrong. Please email me at stevie.langton@truelayer.com - Stevie Talent Coordinator
