Thank you for your comment and we certainly appreciate the feedback you have provided to us on the experience you had during your interview process. It looks like you had a good experience with our approach during the phone screen and our initial cultural interview, which allowed you to proceed to the technical interview.
I am sorry that you did not come away with a good experience during this phase of our process and your feedback is going to be used to help inform the team on what we can do to improve. We do use our candidates feedback as way to teach our team on how to improve their approach during interviews, which is part of our experience here at Ivy Softworks. Everyone in the company is expected to learn on how to recruit and identify the right talent, so we acknowledge that we do make mistakes.
However, this being said, our technical interview is set up to draw out a person's understanding of CS fundamentals and how these can be optimized for real world experiences. Although it is hard to be specific in this case, we think the challenge may be related to the fact that the questions being asked may have underpinned a lack of understanding on the candidates part. This will explain why the interviewer was emphasizing the point by repeating the question.
Again, we appreciate the feedback and wish you success in your future search for your next opportunity.
