      Technical Lead Interview

      9 Sept 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berlin
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Ostrom (Berlin) in Aug 2024

      Interview

      This is the most ridiculous process I’ve ever had. A total waste of time. First of all, when I applied I received a rejection immediately. Felt like their system would send rejections instead of submission confirmations. Two weeks later I got an email apologising for that and that they will actually process my application properly during the week. Anyway I did 4 out of 5 stages: 1) screening call 2) a stage where you submit your live videos of answering some simple tech questions 3) an actual tech call 4) a team interview. Everything that was left was just the call with the founders. On all the interviews I got positive feedback, right on the interview the people would say I am doing really great and gave advices on next stages. But something was not right. Just before the 4th interview I wrote to HR that my availability would be spotty since I will be travelling for medical reasons. Just as a courtesy because I felt like it’s nice to notify about that. No response. Same message next week to checkin, HR went on vacation and didn’t even say anything. Wrote to hiring manager, silence. So I had to write again once she came back from vacation. And I got a rejection template message. We are sorry but we chose another candidate. This is insanity. I don’t understand why you cannot even provide any proper feedback at this point. This is disrespectful and a waste of time.
