Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Could you explain how you would investigate a bug as a Software Engineer and not a product manager?
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Raisin en mars 2026
Entretien
I went through 3 stages with Raisin:
1. Recruiter screen
2. Interview with the Head of Product
3. Live case study with Head of Product & CPO
Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing, mainly because of the recruitment process. The recruiter interaction felt surprisingly unfriendly and did not leave a strong impression of the company’s people culture.
What stood out to me even more was the lack of meaningful feedback after the final stage. After investing time into multiple interviews and a live case study, I received only a standard rejection message with no real explanation. For a company of this size, especially one with a Chief People Officer involved in the process, I would expect a more thoughtful candidate experience.
It is also hard not to notice that some roles at Raisin seem to remain open for months, sometimes much longer. From the outside, this raises questions about how effectively the recruiting process is managed.
The product and business are interesting, but the candidate experience, at least in my case, did not reflect the level of maturity I would expect from the company.
