Yesterday, I received an email from Fetch Rewards regarding a backend engineer position. They are not moving forward to the final round panel interview with me. A few weeks ago, they sent me a take home assessment to complete, and scheduled the first round technical interview with me days later. I had that interview last Friday.
I feel that the interview went pretty well overall. The live coding was a bit iffy as it was my first real technical interview, but I still feel it didn’t go badly. Everything else in the interview I was confident went very well. He said they fill out a scorecard afterward and send it off to the recruiter.
Needless to say, I am disappointed. 1000+ applications, this is the only interview I’ve had. I have 1.5 YOE and am currently employed at a startup, where I am being paid $30k after being promised my “real” salary back in June. June came and went. My boss is 65+ and not technical whatsoever.
We have burned through basically all of the investor money, but the main developers are all located in India. He is also wanting major changes done weekly, changing his mind constantly. It is a shit show. This is why we haven’t fully launched yet and haven’t been making money.
What do I do? I have nowhere else to go to. That was my only interview after countless applications. My resume is fine, my cover letter is fine, I have very strong soft skills and people skills, and think I am a competent developer. I don’t know why this is so difficult to find another job whilst being currently employed.
