I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at EPAM Systems (Budapest) in May 2025
Interview
The interview process was rigorous, done by smart people, use cases were interesting. The whole process made perfect sense. Until I went through it all and got accepted only to be told there isn't a project available at the minute, so it was all in vain. Such a brutally ignorant way to treat applicants, the 2 star was for the architects doing my interview rounds because it was a good experience, otherwise it would be zero for being treated like that.
