I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Checkout.com (Londen, Engeland) in Jul 2021
Interview
I had an interview meeting at 9 AM but the interviewer joined the meeting at 9.2 AM with 2 minutes delay while his webcam was off, just told me: Sorry it seems you need visa sponsorship?
He asked me this question while I was clearly mentioned that I need visa sponsorship in my profile and then asked about my nationality?
It is the first time I see a company asking about nationality at a meeting which seems quite unprofessional!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your nationality?
Do you need Visa Sponsorship?
1 easy hacker rank, 2 technical rounds after.
They are a very cheap company. The offer was terrible 40k and no RSUs. It is funny how they kept showing a video of a guy who went sky diving because he won something in the company yet they don't offer their employees decent compensation. I don't understand how you can offer this to someone working in London as a Software Engineer. For a company with a 15bil evaluation it wouldn't kill them to give their employees some RSUs especially since they are going public soon. Culture at the company seems really micro managed as well.
