Entretien
The interview process felt inefficient overall. There were multiple stages that could have been consolidated, and the team interview didn’t seem particularly impactful. The UI/UX test itself was easy, but the instructions and structure could have been clearer.
The process also lacked feedback, which made it difficult to understand areas for improvement. It felt like the expectations were closer to a senior-level candidate, despite the role being positioned as entry level. If this feedback is being reviewed, I’d encourage investing more in candidates—teaching your standards and ways of working—rather than being overly selective at the entry stage.

Began with a very inviting phone screener. Quick response to schedule a 30 minute MS Teams interview that consisted of a mix of background information and exercises like "how would you test a pencil". Quick response again to schedule a 3.5 hour in-person interview gauntlet where I met with 4 people that gave assessments which were centered around running tests, ranking the priority of bugs, and the software development cycle. Overall good experience, but I was a bit caught off guard by the number of assessments during the final in person interview. I expected at least a 30 minute tour sprinkled somewhere in a 3.5 hour visit.

There was an initial phone screen, team member interview, hiring manager interview. There might have been an on-site interview if I had been selected past that point. Mostly behavioral/resume questions and a puzzle/test plan question.
