HelloFresh Senior Software Engoneer interview questions

Morbid waste of time! I was reached out from another job search marketplace where I had already listed my desired salary AND my prior working experiences in my profile. During the recruiter call, she kept downplaying my prior working experiences to try to set the salary expectations much lower and kept emphasizing that I hastily push through with their interview process and try to get the coding challenge done in one day's time. So I finished it over the night; putting any other plans on hold. The next morning I see my interview profile on the job search marketplace was closed by them (which could only mean I haven't made it to the next round). I emailed her for an update to see what she says and she replies that she's going to reach out to the manager for the next steps, which is very suspicious. I haven't heard back since. It doesn't seem like their interview process is well coordinated and transparent overall, and I'd advise anyone else who interviews with them to look for these red flags during the recruiter call before even committing energy and time to the next steps in their process.

Round #1: HR Call with usual debriefing drill Round #2: Have to choose either of "Take home test" or "Live Coding". I went with the Take Home Test option Advise for candidates who have applied: Don't go for the Github task option; it's a trap. You would be losing your time and your intellectual property for nothing most of the time. Better venture for live coding.
