Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about db index and how it's implemented in the background.
They also asked me about rate limit logger and how you can implement one.
Disorganized interview process — no recruiter, no-show interviewer, and 2-month response window.
First, the interviewer Chad Lowe did not show up to the first scheduled meeting. I had taken PTO from my current job to be available for this interview — that time was wasted with no prior notice.
Second, Plus500 does not appear to have a dedicated recruiter. Scheduling was handled by an office assistant who had limited knowledge of the recruiting process, which created confusion and delays throughout.
Finally, I completed my interview in early June and was told to expect a response in July. It is now well past that date and I have heard nothing — no update, no rejection, no follow-up whatsoever.
