      Software Engineer Interview

      May 5, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Censys

      Interview

      They told me they wanted to interview me after I sent a resume and a cover letter, and we agreed on a time. After this they ghosted me. The recruiter didn't call me at the scheduled time, they also didn't try to contact me after. No apologies, no explanations.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Are you willing to relocate to Ann Arbor?

      Thank you for sharing information about your candidate experience. I apologize that this experience didn't live up to our expectations. We're moving fast and have limited resources, and although this is no excuse sometimes we drop the ball from time to time. I will work hard with the team to ensure this doesn't happen again in the future. Please reach out to me directly if you'd like to talk through your experience further or have the opportunity to pick up where you left off in the process. -Jasmine Burns, Head of People (jasmine@censys.io).

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Censys (Ann Arbor, MI) in Nov 2024

      Interview

      It was supposed to be in total 5 round interview process but I only met the recruiter and hiring manager. The recruiter level was fantastic, they were open and honest and provided a clear understanding of the process and what they were looking for in the role. The hiring manager on the other hand didn't seem to know what role they were hiring for as they didn't really ask me any questions about my background but spent time criticizing my resume (which didn't make any sense because I passed the recruiter screen). They also seemed to be more interested in hiring for the Senior position as they went into detail for that instead of the junior role. Overall I'd say I was disappointed with the professionalism of the hiring manager and wish they had a better process or person hiring people instead.

      Thank you for not only taking the time to interview, but also to share your experience with us. I am disappointed to learn about your interactions with the hiring manager and will work to share this feedback broadly and ensure we improve going forward. I do hope you keep us in mind in the future, and if I can support in any way for future roles (at Censys or others) feel free to reach out to me directly at jasmine@censys.com. --Jasmine Burns, Chief People Officer
