bunq Software Developer interview questions

first step was vibe check with the hr recruiter. it went well and was actually quite nice. second step was technical assignment submission. it was php. i rightfully failed that one. the assigment was easy i just sucked at php back then

I completed all interview stages and reached the final GSDD Since I joined remotely, the process was frustrating. their remote setup kept failing, and I lost half a day just trying to connect. Had to wait till their lunch time to get little support when issues came up. Even when I got stuck, there wasn’t much support from their side. On top of that, It took a lot of extra time just to understand how things were structured. All the things happened in a very poor and unorganised way, which made the whole process unnecessarily difficult. After the final presentation, it seemed like they were happy with my work. Two days later, I received an email from the recruiter asking for my availability for a feedback call, which gave me some hope. However, after two more days, I got a phone call saying, “Unfortunately, you haven’t delivered what we expected.” It would have been better if they had sent detailed feedback over email rather than giving false hope through a call request. Overall, the process felt stressful and unfair to remote candidates. The recruiter was friendly, but the setup and evaluation method were disappointing. This is all for just 9 months short-term contract and what seems like poor work-life balance, I’m relieved I wasn’t selected.
