Candidatei-me por meio de uma agência de recrutamento. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela PlayShifu (Bengaluru) em nov. de 2022
Entrevista
4 stage interview process.
1. HR Screening - Basic screening, as usual
2. Submit a game - games typically are from snake game to vehicle controller. I got snake game with procedural tail wave requirement.
3. Technical round + live coding round - This includes technical discussion of the submitted project and further unity related questions. I was asked to even change some part of the code base in the snake game that I submitted based on the provided feedback and suggested changes.
4. HR round

Entrevista
The interview process at PlayShifu was long, unstructured, and exploitative in the name of an interview. It started with a technical discussion, followed by an assignment on tile and knob detection using OpenCV. I submitted the assignment four times based on their repeated feedback. After every discussion, the interviewer kept saying, “Submit the assignment, we’ll see,” instead of giving clear evaluation criteria or feedback.
After that, I had a one-hour live coding round where I explained my entire approach and code line by line. During the same round, they suddenly gave me a second video (not part of the original problem statement) and asked me to modify my code to make it work for that too. Even after completing this additional task, they again asked for another live coding round on the same assignment. The process dragged from October 8th to October 23rd, with no structure, clarity, or respect for the candidate’s time. It clearly felt like they were exploiting candidates for free technical work in the name of interviews.
What’s worse, during the initial phone screening, the HR explicitly stated that the process would have only three rounds — 1) a technical discussion, 2) an assignment, and 3) an interview with the manager. The interview process kept expanding arbitrarily with additional tasks and rounds, showing a complete lack of professionalism, clarity, and respect for candidates’ time and effort.

They repeatedly asked me to “fix and resubmit the assignment” and to make my OpenCV solution work on a second video not mentioned in the original task — showing how they exploit candidates in the name of interviews.

Entrevista
The communication was clear at every stage, and the interviewers were professional, making the experience engaging and insightful. The relevant questions allowed me to showcase my skills and experience effectively. I also appreciated the opportunity to discuss the role, expectations, and company culture, which helped me better understand the organization. Overall, it was a positive and well-organized process.
