Had an interview with HR; that went smoothly. The interviewer told me that they were looking to build the team and many times mentioned how it was a positive thing that Walmart purchased them. The next interview was the technical interview which was poorly executed. It seemed like the interviewer had not previously conducted interviews and was just asked to do it on his lunch break; he seemed disengaged. Then he ended the interview abruptly and asked me to email him any questions I had. It was very rude.

The folks i spoke with the entire way were amazing. They really left the impression that they were actually listening. First round was a 30 min phone screen with a people recruiter. General talk about what Jet is like and why people love it. Second round was a phone screen with a technical recruiter, i listed the things I’ve done in my career and how they were impactful. Third and fourth phone calls were with people on the team. It was great to talk to them and they were asking fair but very (intentionally) open ended questions. Some regarding how protocols work. Some asking questions about escalating privilege on a Windows domain. Both of which were very fun. I got the approval to come onsite for a 6 person interview. That was cool, questions ranged from talking about python lists vs sets and hypothetical tabletop scenarios. I left feeling pretty confident. The next day I talked to the technical recruiter who said they were happy with my performance and was told I was going to have an offer by the middle of the following week. One check in call at the end of that week to find that the snow storm that happened that week shifted everything. Fair enough. No response the week after and the week after that. I emailed back and no response. Waited a couple weeks and checked back and no response. I chalked this one up as either they had headcount one day and lost that count for various reasons. I would have been ok with that but a little closure would have gone a long way. The company seemed pretty amazing they had a living culture that was very impressive. Too bad this didn’t work out. (For whatever reason that was)
