      Software Engineer Interview

      9 Aug 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Thanks Ben in Jun 2023

      Interview

      Saying that this is the most unprofessional company I've ever interviewed with would be an understatement. A few days after applying, someone contacted me to schedule a chat. On the day, they didn't show up. I emailed them after 10 minutes of waiting. They responded after another 10 minutes saying that they were running late from a personal appointment, which happens, but surely you can see that you're not going to be on time and email people. They then said they were available whenever I was, but when I said "let's talk now", they asked me if I could make it 30 mins later as they had "things to catch up on". On the call, they looked as if they were laying on their side or slouching in their chair, with their head leaning on their hand. Again I thought this looked very unprofessional. And the worst in all that, is that they never bothered to get back to me. All I can say is "Thanks Ben, but no thanks"! This is the sort of behaviour that gives people a poor image of what working in a start-up is like. Most of us are not looking to work with people who think they are too cool for school. Remember your interviewers are the first people speaking to your candidates, and therefore give the first impression of your company. Shame I have to explain this to a company selling a HR related product really... Also if you think you're being smart when asking a question such as "What have you learnt out your working hours and that wasn't directly relevant for your work", you're not. You're only automatically discarding specific demographics and setting yourself up for successfully getting a non diverse workforce. Heard of primary carers before? And guess what, most are women 🙃 And guess what again, they don't have time to learn for the pleasure of learning. That doesn't mean they are not learners. It just means they prioritise what to learn, when and how.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Thanks Ben (London, England) in Jul 2024

      Interview

      The process until the tech challenge was alright. But in the technical challenge the engineers had an outlook of either its their way or the highway. Feedback given after the tech challenge was not helpful nor follows the software engineering principals.
