      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Descartes Systems

      Interview

      - Interview with HR - Interview with Manager - Interview with a team developer The HR makes you wait by lying that they will respond and they do not. not even feedback despite all good interviews. They are probably busy offering positions to those with lower expectations. Don't waste time if you know what you deserve.
