I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at DigitalRoute (Stockholm, Stockholm) in Jan 2024
Interview
HR experience was the worst and unprofessional at the same time. The HR even missed the meeting, and then I reminded him by email, and then he showed up after 15 minutes.
When asked for feedback after the process, the HR was not responsive. So, I personally felt it is a waste of time to spend time on 3 to 4 interviews, including coding tests. The potential employee invested many hours in meetings in their busy working life, and you as an employer don't have a few minutes to give feedback. It shows their unprofessional mentality.
The meeting with the manager was good. He knew his area very well.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Many random questions in Java field. Nothing to be prepared.
Thank you for your feedback about your recent HR experience. We sincerely apologize that the meeting was not well-coordinated and that you had to wait. We take punctuality and professionalism very seriously, and we will be reviewing our internal processes to ensure this doesn't happen again. Best/DR

Overall Comment:
I am very happy with the entire interview process. It was well-planned, straightforward, and transparent. Despite the holiday season, everything was set up within a three-week period. All the DigitalRoute team members I interacted with were highly professional. The recruiter even called me personally (despite me being based in a South Asian country) to explain the reasoning behind the final decision.
One month!
Four levels of interview!
Totally, more than four hours!
Have they ever thought of the mental pressure of the job seeker?
That would be better if:
1) The assessment process time decreases.
2) Share the feedback of rejection.
It is not a reasonable answer that other candidates are more matched! When a person spends one month time for the company and passes their code test completely, it is better to respect the client!
Thank you for your review. We are open to feedback and committed to constant improvement. Please reach out to us at hr@digitalroute.com and provide us with more details. Best /DR
