I applied for the graduate software engineer position a few days after the applications were open. Got a online assessment a few days later and completed all the questions. Got a response back 2 months later for a phone interview with a position that I didn't originally apply for. In the phone interview, I told them that I applied for the software engineer position and wanted to prioritise it but was told that the position had no more spots available. I said that I was still fine with interviewing for the SRE position. I had to complete a system design interview, a code design interview and a management interview afterwards. I received feedback and performed well in all of my interviews. In the end, I was told that there was only 1 position left for the SRE role and was rejected in favour of another candidate who stated that they were interested in pursuing a career in SRE and the point that I was more interested in SWE than SRE was the reason that I was rejected. They used a honest question that I asked against me in deciding the candidate, such a scummy move. I was set for failure from the beginning since there was no way I could have gotten an offer despite doing well in every interview. Atlassian "hires" on a rolling basis but I was ghosted despite applying and completing the online assessment immediately after applications were open. Next time please don't interview people and waste their time when you already know that your positions are all filled up. The good thing about the interview process was the recruiter was nice and communicative. The interviewers were also nice and fun to work with.
