Interview
I found the job posting on indeed.com, I applied, within a week a recruiter emailed me to setup a 30-minute phone interview, then there was a 1-hour phone interview with QA engineers, then there was a 4-hour, on-site series of interviews with QA engineers and software developers.
The first 2 phone interviews went pretty smoothly, most of the questions were about myself, and my interest in Indeed. The on-site interviews were more challenging, there were some technical questions about SQL, API's, and browser cookies. There were several open-ended questions like "how would you test this web form?" Once at both phone interviews, and once on-site I was asked how I would test a random object like a coffee mug, or box of x-mas lights. For this type of role it seemed like they really want someone thorough who thinks outside the box and looks at things from all possible angles.

Question 1
How would you extract just the job title from a web page with a job posting?

Interview
I never applied for this role but I was contacted by Indeed because they thought I would be the perfect fit. After going through a 4 stage Interview process taking up the whole month of January just to complete, I then get a call saying 'I don't have closing experience which is why we won't hire you'. In my opinion I think that's absolutely ridiculous because I initially applied for an Account Executive role with Indeed and after going through the whole process they tell me the exact same excuse. Every company will have a different way of closing, that is the whole point of training so you can close deals and sales the way the company wants too.
I'm just very frustrated with the decision because instead of looking at the individuals potential, what he can bring and his past experience they judge based on one thing, I honestly think that's ridiculous. If they thought that at the very beginning, why contact me and waste my time. Why bring me into the final interview with the Director when she never once asked me a question about closing sales?? I just hope the same thing does not happen to someone else. It is very frustrating and time wasting. The company needs to start making real decisions instead of coming up with stupid excuses. Complete waste of time.

Interview
First, they email you and let you know they're super interested. Then they schedule a block of time for you to receive a phone call via Mixmax.
Then, you wait.
When the time comes that you're supposed to receive the phone call you give them the benefit of the doubt. It's a time frame right? They could call at the tail end. But it isn't coming. Not even an email. They never called me. They never emailed me to let me know anything changed. No communication whatsoever.
