Calix Sr. Software Engineer interview questions

While I appreciate the opportunity to interview with the company, I express my disappointment with the overall process. 1. Prolonged Interview Rounds: Throughout the interview process, each round they took a minimum of one week to be scheduled. 2. Lack of Follow-Up: consistently i did follow up with HR. Unfortunately, I rarely received proper updates from HR, which led to confusion and uncertainty. 3. Delayed Response After last Rounds: After successfully completing three rounds of interviews, I was informed that my profile was being considered further. However, it took more than 10 days for any response, and even then, the inquiry about my availability to join immediately caught me off guard. 4. Unclear Response on Notice Period: When I explained that I would require time to serve my notice period upon receiving an offer, I was informed that the matter would be discussed with the hiring manager and a response would be provided the following day. 5. Lack of Communication: Regrettably, there was no follow-up or communication as promised, despite my attempts to get updates. Each time I reached out, I was told that my profile was in the queue due to the consideration of other candidates. 6. Ambiguous Profile Status: When I inquired about the status of my application and the possibility of rejection, I was informed that my profile was not rejected but being held while other profiles were under review, which is like giving falls hope. 7. Uncertain Timeline: I was informed that an update would be provided within 10 days, which adds further uncertainty to the process. In addition to the time taken for each stage, the lack of clear communication and transparency made me frustrated. Overall the experience with HR is not good and they talk like they don't care about candidate time and urgency!

Initially they process my profile for Staff software engineer After completion of all rounds, at the time of offer they asked me to join as Senior Software Engineer.
