I applied online. I interviewed at Bugsnag (Bath, England) in Jul 2022
Interview
A standard zoom call followed by an in person interview. The inperson interview was 3 hours long and involved a basic coding task and a customer support challenge over zoom. Overall it felt very disorganized and put me off the position. I never heard back from them for 3 weeks so I emailed and was ignored. 2 weeks after that I emailed again and was ignored. A few weeks later still and I finally got a response telling me I didn't get the job.

Question 1
Fizzbuzz coding challenge. Very simple task you can Google how to do it.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bugsnag (Bath, England) in Jan 2021
Interview
30 minute culture interview, around my experience, expectations and what I know about the company.
I was rejected, it did take 2-3 weeks and me chasing up to get feedback but they didn't ghost me and did actually give their reasons for the rejection (which were totally valid)
After reading all the interview reviews here, I am actually not that surprised that it skewed negative.
Their interview process is absolutely horrendous.
In one instance, I go for a technical screening, then the interviewer says he has a meeting he can't make it, "do it yourself instead". I think ok that's a bit odd, why not just reschedule right? Whatever, I do it anyway.
I submit the project through email, then I send a quick note asking to reply to the email if he has received it.
Nothing. Nada. Ghosted.
I have not heard a single word back from them and it's been over a month.
It's pretty pathetic if you ask me.
If you're thinking to work for this company, don't. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.
