I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Adyen
Interview
Got past the Codility phase with 100%, then got past the first technical interview. Up to this point, it was going great and I really enjoyed the process and the two interviewers I met.
However, in my second technical interview, one of the interviewers was very arrogant and dismissive. They focused on a very narrow question repeated ad nauseum. I consider that to be one of the most uncomfortable experices I've been through with a company.
Even though the two technical interviews were very similar, I did very well in one of them, but completely failed the other.
I would never think of applying for Adyen again, terrible experience.
I applied the position which aligns with my experience via Adyen's application platform with referral program. My referrer answered their questions carefully, however then I got rejection via email without feedback. I was expecting from them to be clear what's the reason.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Based on the job description, which required skills does this person have?
Pretty standard in tech company in NL. This what was the recruiter told me:
- Apply through job portal
- Recruiter call
- Tech interviews
- Offer
I failed after some interviews and no feedback despite asking
Eliminated at Recruiter screening, apparently I did not answer what the recruiter wanted to hear exactly, they come with a script that they read and I suppose your answer is also written in the script, fail to say the keywords and they elimnate you.
Recruiter clearly was on a rush and did not even explain next steps properly.
