      Software Engineer Interview

      Jun 8, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Zürich
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Advanon (Zürich) in May 2019

      Interview

      First step was a video interview with a recruiter. I got quite excited about the company, also informed them that I am close to getting another offer and they said they would be able to accommodate my timeline. The second step was a technical interview (video), after that 2 interviews on the same day (both through video, one coding + architecture, the other one was more of a cultural fit interview). At this stage the interview process was already taking about 3 weeks and I received another job offer. At this stage it wasn't clear to me if there were more interviews coming up, or if I had completed all stages. I informed the recruiter about competing offer and asked about the next steps. She hadn't mentioned any additional steps and provided quite good feedback from my interviews, but said that Advanon would need another 1,5 weeks to make a final decision. Because I already had a good offer, I decided to accept it without waiting for Advanon. Eventually they didn't even come back to me with a decision or final feedback which made the overall experience quite negative, even though I felt excited about the company and was seriously considering it earlier.

      Thanks for providing the detailed feedback - it really helps us to improve the candidate experience for others in your field. It sounds like the process started out fairly on track with how we run it: 3-4 interviews over a 2-4 week timeline (depending on candidates scheduling compatibility - with an open schedule, 2 weeks is the norm). And yes, after all interviews are complete, it can take another 1-2 weeks for a final decision for roles that are priority and have a lot of candidates. However, I'm very sorry you didn't get a final answer in the end. This is very surprising, as we always follow up, even if it's not a fit. Understandably that was frustrating for you. In some cases, the timing is just off, as you mentioned you had an offer from the beginning of our process. We put great priority on "people fit", and meeting over a few weeks with different people is really needed to assess that. We hope you understand it couldn't have been rushed. Thanks again for the inputs! Advanon, Head of HR.
