Does anyone work at Confluent inc. and willing to provide a referral? I’m interested in the People Ops Generalist role. I have a background working in both startup and corporate settings on the People team with coordination and TA operations background! Actively looking for new opportunities right now as I was impacted by the RIF at my previous employer.

    1. Frontend Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous Employee in London, England
      No Offer
      Negative Experience
      Average Interview
      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Confluent (London, England)

      Interview

      Three technical stages (HackerRank 2 questions, frontend discussion and some live coding, live coding algorithmic challenge), followed by a final "cultural fit" stage. The cultural stage was not a cultural stage. After passing three technical stages I was rejected with a generic email. I had to chase up to ask for feedback and the reason was I was assumed to be not technically component enough during the cultural fit stage. The interviewer has a PhD and I am self thought, hence the assumption. It seems like a very unfair process since after passing three technical stages you are rejected based on an assumption during a "culture fit" interview. Then you get a generic email with no explanation. Speaks poorly of the company.
      Interview

      Asked to review the UX and UI of a website, recursive algorithmic live challenge. Why have you moved jobs so quickly? How do you make sure you cover all computer science fundamentals?
