I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Canoo (Torrance, CA)
Interview
Phone call, followed by 2 on sites.
After being verbally told by phone and by email I'd receive an offer, the process got stuck in limbo for over 2 weeks. I was then informed that I would not receive an offer afterwards.
Turns out, someone from the design team (he should not be named) vetoed the decision... You know, totally fair and objective decision.
Anyways, considering all the drama going on with the executives, and the fact that the car looks like a shoe box that got r@ped by a car, no regrets.
Rejected after the first round of interview. Questions were mostly about my previous work. I couldn't explain them properly which led to the rejection. There was also a screening round with the HR.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe your previous projects and how you contributed
Applied for full stack role, and I've never used react professionally. Recruiter sets up interview, and within the first couple minutes tells me that they need some one who knows React. What a waste of both of our time, why even schedule an interview? This could've easily been screened on the application/resume portion. We only talk for about 5 minutes. Most bizarre recruiting experience I've ever had. Hilarious because I got another role at another company and am now using React.
