I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mimecast in Oct 2025
Interview
The whole process was very smooth:
- initial connect with HR
- Technical Online Test
- Technical Human Round
The problem was mainly with the expectation of the role of SDET. The technical online round had relevant questions for an SDET and was pretty easy to clear. The technical round with QA Architect and another dev/QA, was nowhere related to SDET level. There were only theoretical questions which had no relation to QA (both technical and non-technical). I did not understand what had just happened after the interview.
