I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at WebCargo in Feb 2025
Interview
The interview process felt rushed and poorly structured. I was given just 24 hours to complete a case study that requested confidential documents from my current job—an unreasonable ask. Scheduling was inflexible, with only a single 2-hour slot for the next round. The interview itself felt disengaged, with the team lead reading generic questions from a script. Ultimately, it seemed like they were fishing for free consulting rather than genuinely evaluating candidates. The lack of transparency about the reporting structure was another red flag. Overall, a disappointing experience
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- Case study with detailed information about a project deployment
- to upload Project plan and KPI document from current project
- 20 questions , basic like 'what is a difficult project you worked on', 'how did you handle a team conflict', etc
The first round was a very short call by phone. Recruiter was going through a list of questions that I had to answer about the experience I had with different tools like confluence, Jira and Amplitude.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at WebCargo (Barcelona) in July 2023
Interview
I had a screening call with HR and then was asked to complete a written assignment. The written assignment had a 24 hour time limit and was very extensive, too extensive to be completed by a full-time employee in 8 hours and certainly too much for a candidate to do in their off hours. Still, I worked hard to complete these tasks and submit them on time. The next day, I received feedback that my "level of written English was not up to their expectations" and therefore wouldn't be moving forward in the hiring process. English is my mother tongue. Giving candidates such an extensive assignment to complete with such a restrictive deadline and then refusing to meet with them to even discuss it is disrespectful to candidates time and effort.
