      Software Engineer Interview

      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Affirm

      Interview

      This was a poorly executed, careless interview process. 1) During the technical screen (round 3): The interviewer pasted the solution into coderpad instead of the problem. They didn't notice until I asked questions about the "prompt." 2) Before the on-site (round 4): The technical recruiter promised to provide details on the format and scope of topics covered. I followed up multiple times, but never received any information. They went radio silent for the 4 days leading up to the on-site. I went into a 6+ hour interview with just a list of names and titles. 3) At the on-site (round 4): 20 minutes into the start of the schedule, the technical recruiter sent an email with cursory details on the format for half the panel. I didn't see the email until the day was half over. 4) At the on-site (round 4): The schedule was comprised of a 6-person technical panel. The panel was 100% male. (With 13% of their engineering team being women, one would expect a greater degree of professionalism and awareness around how their interview process contributes to such a dismal ratio.) 5) Post on-site: The technical recruiter offered to hop on a call to explain the team's decision. I appreciated the offer and sent over times. I received no response. The technical recruiter went radio silent. Again.
