      Principal Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 30, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at United Airlines (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2022

      Interview

      Bad culture, unorganized hiring process, and a giant waste of time for the candidate. United airlines recruiter contacted me via LinkedIn. The process was 4 weeks long. 1st round: hr assessment 2nd round: online assessment that includes an easy leetcode problem and virtual meeting with a tech lead , the hiring manager, and the director. Red flag #1: One person never showed up during the interview. Red flag #2: the hr called and said they will offer but does not give the comp number for 4 days. Completed the online assessment with solutions that is O(n) So-called technical interview/ virtual meeting went well. Confirmed the expected salary range very early in the interview with the hr. However when came to the offer time hr came back with a 30% lower than the expected low number even though they keep confirming multiple times during the interview process and after. Sooo disappointed and a waste of time. My friends warned me about their hiring practices. I wish I listened to them.
