Red Hat Software Engineer Interview Experience: four rounds disrupted by scheduling

A recruiter contacted me quickly after I applied, but reaching them afterward was frustrating. Once I was scheduled, the process became chaotic because scheduling was the biggest source of stress.

I had four interviews: a hiring-manager call, two technical discussions, and a coding round. I had given availability for a week, and the schedule was set around it. Then my final-round interview was moved earlier with only a day's notice. I was told it had been moved to the next day, which seriously cut into my preparation time.

The interviews themselves were less of a problem than the logistics. I did not receive an offer, but I mostly remember the unprofessional scheduling change and how it affected my ability to arrive prepared.

Location: United States. Overall feedback: Negative. Offer status: No offer.
