      Senior Software Developer Interview

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at balena

      Interview

      First I needed to do a take-home assignment, which was actually fun. You have to push it online after a few hours, then it'll be evaluated. I received a very good feedback, going so far as saying they were "very inmpressed" with my solution. Then they scheduled another interview via Google Meet to discuss my solution. Well, the interviewer was a couple minutes late, had no idea who I was, we didn't discuss anything. Instead, the interviewer wanted me to code some simple functions in Javascript, didn't give any feedback at all and seemed completely uninterested. I felt more like a chore he had to get done. The next day I got a rejection mail, telling me sorry no deal and that was it. I still think about how terrible an experience that was years later. In the end, it felt like a did some free labor and got ripped off.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Nothing about my assigned project or anything about my prior experience. Just wanted me to write some simple JS functions.
