One-way video assessments with questions that would be better answered in a conversation. Either they are way too simple or too complex to answer in a video recording. Additionally, undependable communication - before, during, and after - it's frustrating.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a project from beginning to implementation - explain challenges faced and eventual outcome.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at United Airlines (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2025
Interview
Had a short Teams call with the hiring manager directly. Seemed to go ok, then ghosted for well over a month, despite being an employee referral. I may hear something eventually, but it's been crickets.
Process was pretty smooth. The recruiter was communicative and everything that I was told to expect happened. The timeline that was given stayed on track. There were multiple rounds of interviews with various team members.
