Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa BVNK (Cape Town).
Entrevista
I had a great experience throughout the interview process. One thing I really appreciated was receiving an email that allowed me to schedule my interview at a time that worked best for me. It's a small detail, but it made the process feel very candidate-friendly, especially since many companies simply assign a date and time.
The process was efficient and well-managed. I completed three interviews over the course of two weeks, and communication was always prompt, clear, and professional.
What stood out most was the interviewers themselves. They were friendly, welcoming, and made me feel comfortable from the start. Rather than feeling like a formal interrogation, each interview felt like a genuine conversation where I could openly discuss my experience, skills, and interests.
Overall, the process was organized, professional, and respectful of my time. It left me with a very positive impression of the company and its culture.

Interview process consisted of 5 stages.
- HR interview - great professional. Good call with questions around work experience, ways of working and even a small system design question mixed in. Overall pleasant experience.
- Hiring manager interview - Questions around experience in leading teams, handling situations, AI usage, etc.
- System design interview - This one was super cool! Had to design an ongoing monitoring system. Really interesting and great follow up questions from the interviewer. Definitely a hard core tech interview. Loved it!
- Leadership interview - Leadership interview and questions around the style of leadership, handling difficult people, etc.
- Culture fit - interview with the CTO. Short and very focused. Interesting as well.

Entrevista
The screening interview felt very rushed and lacked enough context for a meaningful conversation. There was limited explanation about the company, the specific role, team scope, technical environment, and expectations before moving directly into generic questions.
As a candidate, I found it difficult to properly assess fit when there was no upfront clarity around stack, responsibilities, compensation range, or even a proper initial alignment conversation before the technical screening.
Overall, the process felt unstructured and not very engaging. I believe a clearer introduction to the role and better context before the screening would significantly improve the candidate experience.

How does it make sense to ask about salary expectations before providing enough transparency around the role itself, responsibilities, technical stack, or the compensation range being offered?
