My interview experience with Prodapt was a major red flag and served as a clear indication of how disorganized the company is. The process involved two interviews. The first one was a typical initial screening call, where they discussed general company details and benefits, including the option to work remotely.
The second interview took a surprising turn. Initially, I was told there was a skill mismatch and passed on, only to be contacted later about a different job that seemed more aligned with my skills. I agreed to the second interview, but when the scheduled time came, no one showed up. I reached out to the recruiter, who apologized and rescheduled. The actual interview took place with a senior member of the company, where I was asked generic questions about my role.
One of the most concerning aspects was when I asked about the client and the project details. I was told that this information was confidential. This was the first time in my career that I was unable to receive such basic details, which felt extremely odd and unprofessional.
After that interview, I was offered the role, but when it came time to sign the offer, the recruiter suddenly informed me that the job was not remote, as initially discussed, because the client I was assigned to was new. This felt like a bait-and-switch situation. I ultimately accepted the offer, as I was underpaid in my previous role, but the numerous red flags I encountered made it clear how disorganized and unprofessional the company is.
