Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Skyscanner (Londres, Inglaterra).
Entrevista
Initial coding task that doesn't take long to finish, which is great, followed by 2 interviews one involving cultural questions, another involving questions about technical projects I did in the past.
Finally the on-site interview consisting of culture interview, and 2 system design interviews. The culture interview was one of the best and toughest nice had the interviewer was very experienced. One of the system design interviews was conducted by a manager, which caused some issues when I received his feedback, there were some bits of the feedback that didn't make sense at all. One feedback was "you decided to go with a monolith when microservices would better suit" which is quite a personal opinion and wouldn't be mentioned by a sincere and experienced engineer.

Entrevista
I interviewed with Skyscanner.
The HR process was professional and well-organized. Communication was clear, and I appreciated that they offered to provide feedback afterward.
The technical interview, however, was disappointing.
The interviewer was not very communicative and didn’t provide much clarification when I asked questions about the task, which made the process feel less collaborative than expected.
I implemented a working solution during the interview, focusing on correctness and efficiency. While it may have had minor syntax issues or missed some edge cases due to time pressure, it addressed the problem.
At the end, I was surprised when the interviewer suggested that I might have copied the solution.
This felt unexpected and unfair, especially in a live coding setting where the thought process is visible.
