Entretien
Received e-mail from hiring manager. Scheduled interview for a week later and she cancelled it before it even started. Unprofessional and disorganized and also kind of toxic. Recommend anyone reading up on this place also note the culture.

Autres retours d’entretien d’embauche pour un poste comme Software Engineer chez ActiveCampaign
J'ai postulé via une autre source. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez ActiveCampaign (San José, ) en juil. 2023
Entretien
The interview process was super smooth. the entire process took two weeks.
The first thing was the CV screening through the platform, once I got contacted we scheduled a behavioral interview with the recruiting manager and then a technical interview with some engineers.
The recruiting manager was very friendly and did the typical behavioral questions about "tell me about a challenging situation at work", "how would you deal with this and that"
The technical interview was super nice, the engineers made me feel very safe and welcome, so it was very easy for me to talk my thought process at solving problems. when I got stuck, they would jump in to ask me questions that would guide me towards the correct discussion to make.

Received an email from a recruiter after applying to LinkedIn. Spoke with a recruiter in December saying they were interested in giving a coding exam. Weeks pass and never received the exam. In January got contacted again by the same recruiter saying they were exploring options and decided not to use an exam for candidates. Told me I was gonna move forward with an interview with an engineering manager. Spoke with the manager and she was respectful and helpful with any questions. Asked about behavioral what would you do in this situation and how you resolved it and technical questions about front end technologies ReactJS. After that was told that I wasn’t being moved forward.
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
If a coworker disagreed with you how would you resolve it?
Had a phone interview with the Engineering Manager. The call itself was a little low on the energy side, but ultimately went well in the sense that they expressed the desire to move forward with my application.
A few days after I received an automated email saying ActiveCampaign was not going to move forward. I then proceeded to email the Engineering Manager whom I interviewed with to get some clarity on the situation. They responded that the automated email was correct as the position had been filled.
TL;DR
Got straight up lied to by the Engineering Manager on a promised follow up.
