J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Red Hat
Entretien
Was contacted by a recruiter to fill out a questionnaire. Recruiter told me that I was a great fit, but requested compensation didn't match the range for the position. So I said that I was willing to be flexible, and then the recruiter told me that they would get back to me soon. After some time I called the recruiter, who then proceeded to put me on hold. After about 20 minutes of being on hold, I was disconnected and not called back. After 2 more days I emailed the recruiter, who replied and let me know that they would talk to the hiring manager and get back to me within a day. 3 business days passed with no response from the recruiter. I then called the recruiter who told me that the hiring manager wasn't interested because of my requested salary range (despite expressing desire to be flexible).
So all in all 2-3 weeks of back and forth with a recruiter, and not one conversation with a hiring manager. It is clear that Red Hat is interested in hiring cheap, rather than highly qualified individuals. If you are even marginally skilled, I would avoid applying here. The recruiter I spoke to was nice, and despite hanging up on me, and not being proactive about responding.

Question 1
We think you should be paid way less then you currently make, are you willing to be flexible?

I cleared the interview rounds for a Software Engineering role and was explicitly told by the recruiter that I was selected. We discussed compensation, agreed on a tentative start date, and when a system rejection email randomly triggered, HR told me in writing to ignore it as a system error. Relying on these confirmations, I turned down other active job opportunities.
After 10days, my portal status was changed to "Declined." When I escalated this, management completely shifted the narrative, claiming the previous conversations were just "exploratory" and that the role was now closed.
Red Hat’s internal team completely failed to align, and their recruiter directly misled me into destroying other career opportunities. To lead an engineer on to the point of discussing exact start dates and dismissing rejection notices, only to pull the rug out and deny it later, is a severe breach of professional ethics.

Applied to multiple positions, got an instant response, and scheduled an initial call with the recruiter a day after. Scheduled another 2 interviews with hiring managers from two different teams, the talks were semi-technical, also focused on my ability to work in a team. Last of all, I had two proper technical interviews, one per team I applied to. They focused on my experience and technical knowledge, while also sharing more info about the work I would be potentially dealing with. Thankfully tere was no live coding. I've talked to 7 different personas during my interview process, and they were all really pleasant and nice to talk to. Overall I had a great time, and it truly felt like they wanted to get the best out of me, which I believe they did. Also it was a very very quick process.

Processo lineare, uno screening al telefono, un colloquio con un HR, un colloquio con il CTO o un altro senior, colloquio con il product owner, ma poi mi hanno fermato lì
