I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BairesDev in Oct 2022
Interview
As others have mentioned, the interview process is absolutely ridiculous. I was contacted via LinkedIn and had an initial interview with a recruiter. When I asked for basic information about the responsibilities I'd have in this role, the recruiter was unable to elaborate and provide anything of substance. I was also asked a series of math questions that have *absolutely nothing* to do with my position. I guess the call went well enough, since they followed up with a series of online assessments. The online assessments, once again, had very little to do with the job description. There was a bizarre amount of math questions (think back to the SAT days) and completely random phrases in other languages (Basque, Dutch), among other nonsense. What does this have to do with anything? At that point, I realized that continuing to put effort into the assessment would be a waste of my time. I just started clicking on random answers without even reading the questions. What a joke.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How social do you consider yourself? How patient do you consider yourself? What does (insert Basque phrase here) mean? What does (insert Dutch phrase here) mean? What's the best software for scheduling a video call? In which country are the following coordinates located? If 6 people are meeting and everyone shakes everyone else's hand once, how many handshakes were exchanged? If you're at a party and the host is noticeably getting tired, what would you do? Would you stay and finish your drink? Would you leave? Would you help the host clean up?
