Big red flag:

"We are proud of our 10 step interviewing process that ensures high quality software engineers for our clients."

eh no sorry, I'm high quality* but I'm not going to put up with a 10 step interview process >:V sdjhsks

  • I will not die of low self esteem.

My ideal interview length is 3 stages. Maximum 4. Beyond 4 is unacceptable.

Definitely, the 10 step process was incredibly dumb. It was something like: recruiter call -> hr meet -> lead pm of project -> code challenge call -> 10min english conversation call -> team meet and approval -> client approval -> one day at the office approval -> and two other ones I can't remember.

It's a great company based on what I know but it's way too many steps. I had two friends that reached the english conversation step and was dropped off. They could've avoided 3 steps if it was done by the recruiter on the 1st step DX
