Articul8 interview questions

1st step: Online technical assessment. 2 DSA coding questions, 1 terraform based and 1 Data mining algorithm. Total 4 were done successfully. 2nd step: Call with manager. Manager mentioned about next steps but I haven't heard from recruiter in the next 5 days. Upon 2nd follow up, recruiter contacted me and scheduled on site. On site: 1st round was technical and about overall architecture. 2nd round, interviewer didn't show up as he had conflicting meetings. I could see that as they were walking around. 3rd round was with a cross functional team and more like a behavioral round. To compensate the 2nd round, another member of the team took the interview virtually after my 3rd round. (I had some extra time to spare) I heard from recruiter after few days that a next virtual/on site might be there with senior executive of the company. Just same email updates from the recruiter for the next 2 Fridays. Finally, received a templated email saying that the direction for this role has changed.

One coding test. Python test. call with manager and onsite. It was a complete waste of time. The company is poorly managed and lacks clear direction. They package open-source technology, brand it as innovation, and sell it as a dream to non-technical clients who have little understanding of AI. There is absolutely no real innovation — just repackaging and marketing hype. Overall, a frustrating and unproductive experience.
