Misleading Job Description and Unclear Role Expectations !!
I applied for a MERN Stack (React/Node) developer role, but my interview experience was extremely frustrating and unprofessional. Despite clearly applying for the React/Node position, I was interviewed for a role focused on HTML, CSS, and core JavaScript, which felt more like a designer/core JavaScript position. After two technical rounds, the project manager even suggested I join as an HTML designer, which was completely unrelated to the position I applied for.
To make matters worse, the HR representative continuously asked me about my knowledge of various technologies that weren’t relevant to the role I had applied for. My resume clearly highlighted my skills and experience with the MERN stack, yet I was still bombarded with questions unrelated to the actual job description.
This experience was a waste of time, and it’s clear that the company lacks clarity in its hiring process and role expectations. It felt like they didn’t know what they were looking for in a candidate.
