Step 1. Hiring manager + Someone Else => Zoom meeting. This went well, general questions about personality and soft skills such as Weaknesses, Strengths and current role. Step 2. VP Operations, Senior Consultant and Recruiting Manager => Technical and Background check Zoom meeting This was intended to be a very structured conversation. He mentioned that he was filling out a scorecard during the whole interview and if I didn't know an answer, I was advised to be honest. I was told upfront several times that this was going to be a 90 minutes sessions divided into two parts. However, after a round of questions (about 35 minutes), there was a hard stop and I was pretty much rejected at that moment. He said the meeting was over and I should wait for an offer, which by then it was clear I would never receive. ** Received an email from them confirming the process was over. It's appreciated. Advice: - Be clear and concise because Senior Consultant seems to be upset all the time. - Spring, Java EE, AWS and Cloud concepts should be clear.
