micropsi industries interview questions

The company reached out to me to ask for an in-person interview. At the interview, there was little interest in my extensive portfolio; instead, I was assigned a task that required me to learn a great deal about the company's product and machine vision technology. The information for the task was provided verbally, and I had to take notes. The next day, I was contacted by the recruiter to push for the task to be completed “within a couple of days” so it could be reviewed. Once the task was completed, I was ghosted. To my follow-up email, the reply was that the “reviewer” (who is not a writer) was, first on vacation, and then sick. On the next follow-up several weeks later, I received a canned reply about “other candidates that align more closely”. There was no feedback of any kind. It is not clear why the company reached out to me in the first place, or insisted on completing this task. Everyone seemed nice enough to begin with, but it turned out to be a complete waste of time and creative effort. I doubt that anyone bothered to look at the “free” work I completed, or that they would know what to look for. Assigning unpaid “take-home” tasks instead of reviewing portfolios would imply a lack of insight into software documentation processes.

The recruiter doesn't seem to be familiar with the product and fully rely on the candidate to do their research to know the company. And the recruiter focus only on what value you can bring to them. And in the end, they ghosted without any updates. ;-)
