The recruiter reached out to me a week after I put in the application to schedule a 15 minute screening call. I put in a time that was supposed to be treated as a confirmed interview, but the recruiter never called. I reached out again to see if they had accidentally missed the meeting, but I was ghosted. Very unprofessional.

Other Software Engineer interview reviews for Human Interest
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Human Interest in Dec 2023
Interview
Very disappointing. Talking with the recruiter was a very friendly and positive experience. The technical interviewer however, was incredibly rude. Never had I experienced such an attitude in my 10 years in the IT field. She asked me many questions that were all over the place. Inconsistent and not related to what I had explained about my projects. I tried to answer them as best as I could, And she even cut me off half way through explaining to jump to another question! And even made remarks "I know that already, tell me about...", I understand these tech recruiters ask many different questions, I have been doing this for a long time. But she was just PLAIN RUDE. I hope the HR see's all these negative reviews about their employees and does something about this!
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Human Interest
Interview
This is the only time I've had someone tell me I'm over engineering a solution while simultaneously telling me I'm not considering scaling into the future.
Another startup with seemingly ok pay that thinks they are the next unicorn with 5+ separate interviews and interviewers with convoluted interview questions. I would have preferred leet code to actually demonstrate my coding skills or infrastructure challenge instead of arbitrary coding gotchas.
Wouldn't recommend anyone go through this slow process although I appreciate the recruiter giving feedback after the process.

Question 1
Was given an incredible convoluted financial application example and told to build the architecture behind it.
