5 separate interviews, each an hour long. total 5 hours. Each with a team member going over product, my background, and general interview questions. Each team member talked about their role.

I would like to share my experience of the interview process at Samsung, Vancouver headquarters office. Unfortunately, I do not recommend this interview process consisting a series of bad to ugly events: (1.) The recruiter was a 3rd party contractor, whom scheduled me months AFTER our first email thread. I was then scheduled for a video call interview with the hiring manager. (2.) During the scheduled video call interview, the hiring manager ended up being a no show with no notice (3.) I emailed the recruiter, after some confusion, we rescheduled. (4.) We finally did the interview with the hiring manager. He admitted he overlooked this interview (even though it's been scheduled weeks beforehand). This hiring manager stated that he has no actual UX experience and is looking for a full-stack designer that can do it all... Yet they are currently leading a team full of UX designers. (5.) The agenda was set up where the hiring manger would have a list of questions to ask and I could ask my questions at the end. I'm disappointed to say the questions asked were formulated in a condescending and judgemental tone: • Which university did you attend? • What degree did you graduate with? • Why was your position at XYZ so short? • Can you tell me a time when you didn't get along with someone? • From what I can see, it seems like your experience aren't as relevant for this role? (6.) With 5 minutes left of our interview, he finally gave me a chance to ask one question. His answer took the entire 5 minutes in a ramble and didn't answer my question, I had to follow up to clarify what his answer actually meant. It was a mess. Despite the rough start, I gave him the benefit of the doubt. We ended up talking about next steps and how I will meet the rest of the team. (7.) I wait 2 weeks, no news. I followed up with an email to see where we are at. Both the recruiter and hiring manager ended up ghosting me. There was no reply or acknowledgement if they are proceeding with someone else or if the role had been filled. (8.) They ended up reposting the role again in social media and job boards.
