Entrevista
Datadog was a company that I was very interested in and heard good things about, hence I had higher expectations for the interview process. But it turned out to be extremely disappointing.
The recruiter for the first HR call postponed the interview 30 mins before the interview was supposed to start, without providing any reason. Just abruptly updated the calendar invite. For context, due to the time difference it was early morning for me and I made special arrangements to attend the interview.
When we finally had the interview, the experience was average. She mentioned that they will expedite the process and get back within a day or so, but it's been more than 2 WEEKS and I have yet to receive any update from them. Perhaps I might have failed, but there was no rejection email or any updates on the application status. Very bad candidate experience.

I recently had a very disappointing interview experience. The conversation was rushed, with the recruiter from UK moving abruptly from one question to another without giving space to respond fully. The entire interview lasted barely 20 minutes, with no proper introduction about herself or the role, which set a poor tone right from the start.
Unfortunately, the process felt dismissive and unstructured, as though it was being done just to tick a box during the holiday period. As candidates invest time and preparation, experiences like this leave a negative impression of the company.
I sincerely hope the organization reviews and strengthens its talent acquisition practices to ensure candidates are treated with professionalism and respect. A better candidate experience goes a long way in building a strong employer brand

I was sourced through the recruiter and during the call, the recruiter ask some key screening questions. Through the screening questions, the recruiter said you didn’t answer the questions and you should used the STAR approach. The recruiter should be more specific if they were looking for some answer & said clearly it is not a fit. This role has been open for the longest time in Singapore. I guess we know why

The interview process for this type of role is very long and unneccasery, 7-8 rounds meeting various employees and each time you have to explain your Experience again which can be frustrating as seems lack of communication across process. Too long to be taking up candidates time and could be made shorter.
