Atos recrutier reached out via Linkedin and proposed two roles. Later we got on a call where recrutier evidently couldn't tell the difference between Enterprise Architect and Cloud Architect roles which were offered to me. With that, I took the risk and booked a technical 2nd round with Atos, although I could tell it would be a mess since they didn't know what they expect and what the role is all about. Technical round was consisting of a hiring manager (non-technical, talking-head) and an Azure Architect which was asking nothing but the engineering questions around public cloud, specifically Azure. They got so off from what was expected in the job description, that I had to stop them and ask if we're all aligned in terms of what's expected from the role and their questions. Atos people got perplexed, and I couldn't tell they also didn't realize I had applied to an architect role, not helpdesk/engineering role. Talking-head got so confused at the end trying to match me to 3-4 roles he had open vs my acctual application and vs my CV, I could tell this process wouldn't go anywhere. And sure it was - ATOS never replied back with the formal YES/NO decision. Chased their HR but for the 4th week in a row all she's able to tell is "they were very impressed with your abilities but I don't have an official feedback yet." What a waste of time it was!

Applied online - HR screening - technical interview - F2F interview. Overall it was a very slow process and I had to chase for updates regularly. They were so slow that I had applied for another role and been offered the position in the same time it took for these guys to move from one stage to the next. It's been over a month and still not a final decision. I won't accept even if they do offer. They also were not clear on the salary bracket either.
