Lightspeed interview questions

Quick recruiter call, followed by hiring manager round, team interview, VP round. Everyone is very nice, respectful and collaborative. Very smart people, you can exchange a good conversation. Super friendly :)

I experienced the interview process as very disrespectful. Only during the feedback conversation after my rejection did I learn that the position had effectively shifted toward a mid‑level role, something that had not been communicated to me beforehand. I was told that this feedback that I am, somehow, actually a mid level developer (despite covering the job of a senior) was told to me “for the sake of my future.” In my view, questioning a candidate’s seniority, especially when they have already held comparable roles for years, is inappropriate. I ultimately accepted a senior position elsewhere with higher compensation and full remote, without mandatory “pillar days” of attendance or whatever you called it. For me personally, remaining unemployed would have been preferable to working here.
