      Senior Engineering Manager Interview

      Mar 22, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Sydney
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Immutable (Sydney) in Feb 2022

      Interview

      Talent acquisition contacted via Linkedin, although I was not looking for change but they insist on the role and promote the company great technology and culture. After I read more about Immutable it looks like a good place to learn and make impact. 1st round with Director of engineering, asked about past experience and few simple leadership questions like performance management, etc. Talent acquisition called and shared feedback: "oh it was great, we are so keen to move forward, I know this role title is lower with your current but we'll work it out, and don't worry about salary package, we manage it anyway, here is great place for you to gain more experience about Blockchain". 2nd round, young engineer ask to design a system to generate continuous numeric identifiers in large scale, and in 2nd half build (code / sudocode) the system in any language, shouldn't necessarily compile and run, just to see your coding skills. Got feedback from talent team, "congrats, you did pass this round, although we don't expect heavy development engagement from EMs but it was really good scalable design". 3rd round, with CTO, questions about past experience? what you've done? why did you leave? what you looking for at Immutable? dry and one-way except last few minutes. Talent team called and asked how was it? shared my last round interview experience and improvement areas like: there was not much discussion/information about open EM role, expectations and technology vision and strategy in final round, talent said: oh actually we think it went well but we need to find the right team for you, and your skillset. Well this doesn't sounds right to me, shouldn't you look for right skillset to match in early stage rather than final round? Anyway I stayed tuned and she keep postponing the catch up for 2 weeks, that's not great candidate experience right? 2 weeks waiting for yes/no (although I was not really waiting, last signal was pretty clear). Finally received a feedback that: look you are strong EM and can add value to team BUT we don't have right team for you NOW and if you can wait we build a team and contact you as 1st candidate AND we know that you might not be available by then so good luck! To candidates: be mindful of your time and effort, when you see such signs raise questions and follow up, this may look simple but takes few weeks to reach to the point of "good luck" or offer. And don't be shy to ask for higher package salary, if they have "right" team they'll make it happen. To Immutable: value candidates time and do your homework before contacting and engaging candidate, matching candidate skillset is not that difficult to leave it for final round after few weeks to figure out. Even if things change in middle be transparent and communicate.

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Immutable (Melbourne) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      My experience with the Immutable hiring process has been very disappointing and unprofessional. That's the first time I am leaving a review for a hiring process, but I'm so annoyed and frustrated about my experience that I think they deserve to have my review. I have received an email a couple of weeks after I applied for the role. I had the first interview with someone from HR. First, I was asked some questions entirely irrelevant to the role. When the interview session was about to end, I was so annoyed by the random questions, so I asked about the responsibilities. I found out the HR representative was interviewing me for a different role (Software Engineer role). I was a bit frustrated at that point. However, she stayed a bit longer and asked me a few relevant questions but in a complete rush. I didn't even get a chance to ask all questions that I had. After the interview, I sent an email and shared some questions and thoughts about the role, but I didn't receive any responses, so I thought the application was unsuccessful and they are not professional to notify candidates. Today, I received a call after hours from their HR that my application was not successful, and she gave a completely generic response that could be right or wrong for anybody for any role! I feel I didn't get a chance to have a proper interview at all and of course they didn't get a chance to interview me for this role. I understand they are scaling quite fast, but I think very soon their ship would sink if they didn't try to improve their process. When the reputation goes wrong, you cannot find the right talent no matter how competitive you make the offer!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Some questions about my previous experience. HR was not ready at all to interview me for this position so I was asked some random questions in a rush.
