Autres retours d’entretien d’embauche pour un poste comme Engineering Manager chez Calix
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Calix (Bengaluru) en août 2025
Entretien
As part of the initial steps in the application process, I was asked to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). The version I received included a statement indicating that a copy would be provided to the signer once executed. When I later asked about receiving a copy for my own records, I was informed that candidates would not be provided one.
The NDA also did not outline a specific duration for its terms, which I personally prefer to see included in any agreement. Having a clear end date and a personal copy helps me review the terms in the future, especially if I want to reflect on discussions or feedback from the process for my own professional growth.
Because the document structure did not align with my preferences for time-bound terms and accessible records, I decided not to proceed with the application. While I did not experience the later stages of the process, I can say that the recruitment team was prompt and courteous in their email communication.
Pros:
Timely and polite responses from the recruitment team
Cons:
NDA terms not time-bound
No signed copy available for candidate records

Question 1
During the initial application steps, I was asked to complete an online assessment from the Predictive Index and sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). This raised a few questions for me as a candidate:
Is it common for the Predictive Index assessment to be part of the very first stage of the process?
Should the NDA provided to candidates have a specific end date for its terms?
If the NDA states that a copy will be provided after signing, is it standard practice not to share one?
How can candidates review the terms later for personal reference if they do not receive a copy?
I decided not to proceed further because I personally prefer time-bound agreements and to keep copies of documents I sign. The recruitment team, however, responded promptly and professionally to my inquiries.
Thank you for your interest in Calix and for sharing your feedback. We're happy to hear that your experience with our recruitment team was both professional and timely.
Your input sparked some valuable internal discussions. As our team recently shared with you, we now make signed NDAs accessible to candidates after signing. Thanks to your feedback, we’ve also updated the NDA to include a clear 2-year duration. Thanks for making us better!
