Perguntas de entrevista da empresa Squirro

While the initial HR contact was friendly and prompt in scheduling the first interview, the process quickly became disorganized. Only HR attended the initial meeting, despite a technical person being expected. Immediately following, a coding task with a tight deadline was assigned, focusing on API data processing and filtering. I dedicated significant effort, completing all required elements and even tackling the bonus challenges. The subsequent technical interview with the Chief Engineer and a co-founder offered positive feedback on my task execution, noting only a minor issue in a bonus point related to the incremental load. I was then asked to refactor this small bug and articulate my understanding of the role, with the promise of a follow-up discussion. Despite promptly submitting the revised task and role description, this promised conversation never materialized. For three weeks, I was left in limbo, communicating with a perplexed HR who acknowledged my strong suitability for the role and the excellent completion of the task. The lack of clarity around the 'Acorn platform' mentioned (but not explained) in the job description also made understanding the role challenging. Ultimately, a generic rejection email arrived, citing vague 'concerns' that the previously agreed-upon follow-up could have easily addressed. Although HR was personable and seemingly supportive, the drawn-out, ultimately disregarded process and broken commitment make it impossible to recommend this company. The lack of transparency regarding the role and the failure to honor their word raise serious concerns about their candidate experience.

The interviews started off great—the first two were really well-structured and went smoothly. But then it all turned into a disaster. They gave me a task to complete over the weekend, which I dedicated my entire weekend and time to, and I believe I did a great job. After submitting it, they didn’t even bother to explain what went wrong—they just sent me a generic rejection. That’s not fair. I later asked them to clarify what was lacking and to give me some feedback, but they never replied. Im very disappointed!
