I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IUNU (Seattle, WA)
Interview
The interview process was fairly easy and the atmosphere felt welcoming, with friendly interviewers who encouraged open conversation and made me feel at ease throughout each round. If I recall correctly, there were no product demos or mock discovery calls required during the interview, which helped reduce stress and kept the focus on my experience and skills.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What sales methodologies have you been trained on?
Not as informative about the industry as it should have been. The interview process was streamlined with one manager and final interview with CEO. The questions were sales targeted. They asked for references, had little wiggle room for countering, boasted the company.
The interview process with iUNU consisted of screening and three rounds. However, it was marked by constant changes in the job title, which led to confusion and frustration.
Initially, the position was advertised as "Head of Software Engineering." However, as the process progressed, it transformed into "Sr. Technical Manager" and, ultimately, "Tech Lead."
In the first technical round, the discussion revolved around my previous experience and work methodologies, with the interviewer stating it was for the "Head of Engineering" position.
The second technical round involved a coding task where I had to build a game from scratch. In this round, the interviewer mentioned that the interview was for the "Sr. Technical Manager" role.
The third technical round, meant to extend the code from the previous coding task, took an unexpected turn. The interviewer stated that the job title had changed to "Tech Lead" and asked me Python-related questions, which seemed unusual for someone with 13 years of experience, especially considering that the job posting was primarily focused on Ruby proficiency.
Overall, the interview process left a lot to be desired. The ever-changing job titles and mismatch between the advertised role and the actual interview content made it a frustrating and time-consuming experience, ultimately feeling like a waste of time.
