      Junior Back-End Developer Interview

      3 Jul 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at The Big Phone Store

      Interview

      I had a highly unprofessional experience with the interview process at this company. Initially, I applied for the Junior Backend Developer position and was asked to complete two online assessments on the TestGorilla platform. These assessments took me about 3-4 hours in total, and I succeeded in completing them. Following the assessments, my offline interview was scheduled for a specific date, which I confirmed. However, just before the interview day, they rescheduled it to a later date, and I again confirmed my availability. On the rescheduled interview day, I arrived at the office as planned. The HR representative asked me to wait a few minutes for the interviewer. After waiting for 20-30 minutes, the same HR representative informed me that the person responsible for the interview had left the office due to some 'important' work. Consequently, the HR representative conducted the interview, which only consisted of basic HR questions. A few days later, I received a notification that I was not selected for the position. The entire process was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. To add to this, the position is always open on some job portals, leading me to believe they might be running some kind of SCAM. I wasted my time, money, and efforts on this process!

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear about your experience during our interview process. We strive to make every candidate's experience as smooth and respectful as possible. We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the rescheduling and the delay on the interview day and we understand how frustrating it must have been to have the process disrupted and to be interviewed by someone other than the intended interviewer. However, regarding the rest of your review, we must say that we do have a thorough recruitment process designed to ensure that we find the best candidates for our roles. This process may sometimes result in positions being reposted as we carefully evaluate all applicants. Please be assured that we are not the type of company that hires people simply to see how it goes or just to hope for the best. This is not feasible for us as a company but also unfair to candidates. Our goal is to make informed and thoughtful hiring decisions and over years of experience we have created a recruitment process that works for our candidates as well as for us. This process is essential as it also helps applicants decide whether the role is right for them and this is key for anyone seeking new employment. We find that our process whilst intensive is necessary as it ensures that the right candidates are selected for the job in a very competitive climate. Thank you again for your feedback, and best of luck with your job search.
