I applied online. I interviewed at Atera (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Jan 2025
Interview
The worst interview I had in my whole career.
I was asked to create a server intentionally in a language I don't know, with an OS I'm not used to in an IDE I'm not familiar with, all that in one hour.
IN THE OPEN SPACE.
It was loud and was impossible to concentrate properly.
It felt like they tried to maximize the pressure to see how I perform in unfamiliar environment, but it felt more like they forgot this is not a test to be a pilot in the air force rather then a developer.
It absolutely did not measure my skills and abilities. Would not recommend.
