      IT Specialist Interview

      28 July 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berlin
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Transparent Hiring (Berlin) in June 2023

      Interview

      Red alert!!! This is fake HR company!!! I found them in LinkedIn and applied online. After some time I got an invitation to talk. The recruiter asked my background, desired salary, preferred geographic location, and all relevant questions. They did not have any suitable positions to offer (they are recruiting company that works with German companies). So it was agreed that we meet later in few months to see if there is something suitable. After few months I again had a video call with them. The same recruiter redirected me to another recruiter. The other recruiter started to offer VIP package of connecting me to 3 interviews. The cost of such "VIP package" was about 2-3 thousand euros. What??? The companies pay to the agencies for finding a candidate, candidates never pay anything. Needles to say, I immediately understood that this is FAKE recruiting company, while they have some real positions, they try to deceive people by selling them fake interviews. I am 100% sure that such "real" interviews that they ask to pay for are indeed FAKE interviews with fake people. Beware of this so called recruiting company!!!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They tried to sell me fake interviews and squeeze a money: would you be interested in VIP package making sure you will get 3 interviews from employers?
