I went through three interviews with Autodesk. Overall, the timeline of the process was within what you might expect, but the coordination was quite chaotic, as interview dates took a long time to be confirmed. After the third interview — which required preparing and presenting a commercial-focused case study — I never received any feedback or final update. More than two months passed with complete silence. During that time, I followed up with the recruiter based in Barcelona who was managing the process. He suggested scheduling a brief call, but after I shared my availability, he never responded again. Because I was genuinely interested in the role and had invested significant time and effort preparing, I also reached out to the team manager who interviewed me twice and attended the case study presentation. Unfortunately, I never received a response from them either. This experience was very disappointing. Reaching such an advanced stage of the process without any closure feels disrespectful to candidates’ time and effort. While rejection is part of any hiring process, being completely ghosted — especially after multiple interviews and a case presentation — reflects poorly on the professionalism of the process. I had high expectations for Autodesk and was highly motivated throughout the process, which makes the lack of communication particularly unfortunate.

I have had 5 interviews with Autodesk. 1 phone interview with HR, 3 conference calls with Managers and the final one was face to face with Managers as well in Jordan where I am located. They were all super nice and professional I have to say. However; my last interview was on September 12th and I haven't heard back from them since. I mean even startups nowadays send a rejection letter. It is so unprofessional to leave your candidates hanging. I have missed out on 3 other job offers meanwhile I was waiting because I thought if I had made it this far, there should have been something good about me. I sent 2 follow up emails, if they just responded to the first one with rejection, I would not be completely jobless right now. What a waste of time and opportunities!
