So I was given an OA but there was a problem with that OA. The test would will always fail not matter what you did. It took me a while to figured that out. The next day the recruiter tells me there was a problem with OA and want me to do a phone interview and ask me for my schedule but because Dropbox was not doing interviews the next week I had to give my schedule that was two week from that day. So two week past by and shit happens. So one of the days I say I would be free two week ago well turn up there was a new meeting that day. So I was at that meeting when my phone rings and the caller id says "Zoom". I was thinking it was a zoom recruiter so I answer the phone call to tell them to call me later. Some robot voice was saying I will join a meeting soon. I thought it was spam so I ended the call. They call me again so I decided to wait. Then someone says there are from Dropbox and we are doing a phone interview. I did not knew I was having the interview that day. The recruiter never send me the confirmation date, meeting link or the coding link. I panic so I left the meeting I was on so that I could talk on the phone. So I had to go open my personal computer, search my emails to see if there was a new email for the codingpad. There was nothing so he had to send me an email with the link. As you can tell this phone interview when horrible. I was thirty minutes in when I started to received slack messages from my manager to join a meeting. I already use my lunch hour so I could not use that as an excuse. So I decided to end the phone interview. It sucks because the problem was much easier than the OA and I think could even finish it. I email my recruiter to tell me what happened and to see if I could have another interview. A week past by and I got my rejection email.
It is ur job to confirm the interview schedule. It is more u screwed up than Dropbox
?
Lol it's your job to blame the victim WF
seems to be a trend with dropbox recruiters. i had a call scheduled with one and she never even showed up. i emailed her and she said the position was filled. what a moron like at least send an email to cancel the call
Was this engineering? Afaik dropbox does generic hiring (hc then team match) so position being filled as a reason to cancel doesn't add up.
yea it was a SWE role
Had to reschedule the initial Dropbox recruiter call 3 times as they had some connection issues. Phew.
I think you would have gotten the rejection with other company too, fault on both side. You shouldn't proceed with the interview and dropped out half way through. Better to not start and reschedule
Sorry that happened, but to confirm the recruiter never send you a confirmation day?
Nope I was still waiting for that.
