Emergent Software Software Engineer interview questions

I interviewed in early April and the process took about 2 weeks total. First upon sending in my resume I was given a link to a 2 part assessment to complete. The first part was mostly logic based questions to assess critical thinking and deductive reasoning skills. The second part was a coding algorithm problem to solve. Total time limit was 60 minutes with 20 minutes for the assessment and the rest of the time for the algorithm. I then received an invite to a video interview to go over my basic background information and had a chance to ask questions about the company and position. It was a mostly informal call which seemed designed to evaluate soft skills, needs and, culture fit for both parties more than anything else. The next step was a take home coding challenge with a 4 hour limit on it, I can't spoil any details on it but it was straightforward and nothing crazy. That was then reviewed and looked good so I was moved on to the final step which was a technical interview where the first half was a code review of my challenge and the second half was technical questions. After that final step there was about a weeks wait while they finished interviewing other candidates but my inital point of contact reached out to me after a few days to let me know what was going on, which was very nice to not have to wonder or contact them to find out what was going on. Overall I felt the interview process was good and moved quickly with the candidate knowing where they were in the process and the steps that were left the entire time.

They requested me to take an 80 minute assessment. Received an email shortly after saying they’re not interested. I would not be surprised if they didn’t actually review my resume until I finished the assessment. Easy way for them to have to review less applicants right? Unkind and unprofessional to put the applicants through that long of a process and not give them the decency of at least hearing from someone from the company at some point in the process. Nope, just a template email was sent.
