I have been a fan of this company and its products. The interview experience left a very bad impression.
One day the recruiter called me while I am at a meeting at work. I saw an unknown number and ignored the call. I then get got a text on my phone "Hi this is XYZ from Atlassian, have 10 minutes to talk?"
I called him back, and he sounded so ecstatic to answer my call. He said "thanks for applying".. and I quickly corrected him "I did not apply". He then said I had applied 2 years ago and he saw my resume in their database and that the hiring manager was super-excited about my profile and wants to interview me for team X.
In the next few days, I cleared the phone screen and the onsite interview got scheduled.
I reached the Mountain View office 30 minutes before the scheduled first round.
As I am sitting in the lobby, that recruiter called again. He said.. "The position you were supposed to interview for today, has been internally filled, but there is another team that wants to interview you today, so with minimum change to the schedule, we will go ahead with the interview.. give me a call when you are done with the interview".
I get done after a few hours and call the recruiter back. He mentioned of the couple feedback entered in the system already, one is positive, one is not so positive, lets wait for other feedback and that he will let me know by next morning. It all seemed reasonable.
for the next week or more there is no news. Then enquired by email and got a response.. "we are still evaluating other candidates, however we will not move forward this your your candidature".
Three things that left a bad taste:
1) Feeling its alright to text the candidate when you are super-excited about the candidature
2) Letting the candidate know about the position closure on the day of the interview
3) Then continue "candidate shopping" and leaving candidate in dark until he enquires.
Well, I still would have appreciated a phone call from the recruiter (assuming he was a phone/text) person from previous interaction and get detailed feedback about what round did not go so well.

Entrevista
I passed six levels of interviews without a problem, but in the end, they said they closed the position. The technical and values interviews were complete nonsense. Anyone can pass with proper preparation. Especially the management and values interviews. But I was really frustrated because they said they closed the role one day after I passed all the interviews. A company that interviews you about values has no respect for you at all. I spent time, effort, and hope on this.

- Screening standard pretty basic questions
- Technical (coding) I and II interview is mid level leetcode question but they request an update after completing. They may cause a time problem.
- System Design is mid level system design. But interviewer didn't understand the technologies I use a bit.
- Management and Values interview corporate nonsense. Search or ask AI example questions and create stories if don't have. They are asking question like you have been encountered all types of dispute at previous jobs.

I am going to highlight some of my experiences below.
I felt the interview process was designed to set one up to fail and a waste of my valuable time.
Firstly pitting candidates through numerous coding tests under a tight time schedule is not the way to see through another human. While I conducted all the coding tests and completed the results successfully, I still did not pass through to the next round.
During these tests, I was asked to hold the screen so that a screen capture could be taken. This was a red flag suggesting the interviewer was not following my thorough explanation of the solutions I was implementing. Especially that the language I was using was not known to them and more particularly that I was extremely careful to ensure I deliver each and every thought I was making deliberately. The process felt unprofessional and one way. I did not feel confident in the interviewer's skills especially with regards to communication and etiquette.
Two other red flags I have is the lack of feedback the company can provide. If you can't provide genuine feedback to your candidates and are concerned of legal repercussions; then you must be hiding something! Also the fact that one has to perform another technical test with an external organization does not give me confidence in this organization.
The recruiter initially presents a very bright picture of how good it is to work in this organization and are open to proper follow through however later this felt more like a carrot dangling tactic. After putting much effort to ensure successful delivery, I felt this was an unfair process despite trying to put my best human foot forward.

Questions typically asked were along the lines of:
"Find a list of X to fit Y items in provided some other condition."
(I don't want to give away too much).
This is typical to a leet code question at medium difficulty.
