It was a video interview due to the Covid19 situation. I called the Talent Acquisition(TA) contact person 10 minutes before the meeting to confirm if the interview is still on, and was told that it is.
However, no one showed up in the meeting.
I called the TA again, who told me that she'll check, but even 10 minutes later there was no update and no one showed up.
Out of 10+ companies I've interviewed with in the past 2 weeks, this was the only time it happened.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Optum (Mumbai) in Feb 2021
Interview
I don't think they're interested in interviewing anyone.
Went through a 3 hour long coding test, they call it Codality.
The interview coordinator tried to schedule a few times, but ultimately got it scheduled almost a month after the test happened (I guess they already got their desired candidate by then through whatever mode).
During meeting, stayed for quite a while, even emailed the scheduler & other Optum participants in the meeting, but there is absolute silence.
Had to call the interview coordinator to report the issue.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Optum (Chennai) in Oct 2020
Interview
Code test with 5 questions from HackerRank. 3 of them are from DS and Algo and 2 are SQLs
2 one to one interviews with senior engineers on coding skills and design skills
