      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Nov 3, 2020
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Copenhagen, Capital Region
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at MAERSK (Copenhagen, Capital Region) in Jul 2020

      Interview

      It was the most ambiguous, non-professional interview, ever. It took more than 4 months. Just after application, I had an HR phone call, an online assessment, and another interview with the hiring manager and a technical guy. After two months without any update, I sent a follow-up email, I was told that the position was moved to India, "we have other opportunities if you want, we can move forward with you". I said yes and Pandora's box was opened. After one week I got an email, it was a technical assignment with only two days deadline. I did that and sent it to the new recruiter, then their recruiters (maybe 5) called me more than 20 times, in most cases, they asked the same HR questions. Then, they set a technical interview with the Cloud Architect guy, it was good except he didn't turn his camera on during the interview. After some phone calls, they set another interview with two managers, they postponed it several times (for more important meetings!) and finally, they didn't show up for the interview, didn’t answer my call nor my email, after 3 hours the recruiter apologized (she said "I didn't have internet"! imagine for a company like Maersk) and set another date. Finally, the interview was held with two managers, during interview one of them wanted to show-off for the other one. they asked me tones of technical detailed questions, (e.g. HikaryCP parameter name for Idle connections number). I didn't expect a technical interview for that step but I answered most of the questions. Again, after three weeks, I sent a follow-up email, and they said that they haven’t picked me. It seems they didn’t have any specific recruiting process; recruiters are extremely non-professional, they don’t respect you, and your time (every time they would call you a day before next interview and insist to change your plan maybe because they think manager’s time is more important!), they won’t show up for the interview without any notice, they don’t explain the process (if there is any) or interview content. It was my fault I should have stopped the process, sooner, the big name of “Maersk” fooled me.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at MAERSK (Bengaluru) in Sep 2023

      Interview

      This has been by far the worst company for which I have interviewed. They contacted me regarding an opening in their APM Terminals team due to an ongoing hiring drive. On that day, there were two rounds of interviews (technical and behavioural) conducted. A few days later, the HR department informed me that there would be an additional behavioural interview round. I agreed to it and participated in the interview. Again, after a few days, she called me to inform me about yet another behavioural round. When I inquired, she mentioned that all the previous rounds had yielded positive feedback, but they wanted one more round with some senior professionals. I reluctantly agreed and completed the interview. It has now been almost four weeks, and I have not received any communication regarding the outcome of the interview. I made several attempts to contact the HR via phone and email, but she ignored my messages each time. There was one instance where she responded, stating that there was some sort of production issue and promised to get back to me in two days, which never happened. I find it hard to believe that this company, which behaves so unprofessionally and irresponsibly, has received high ratings on Glassdoor. When they requested three rounds of behavioural interviews for a technical position, I should have been more cautious. It seems they are not genuinely committed to the hiring process and certainly do not value the time of their candidates. It appears to be a group of unprofessional individuals managing the hiring process.
