I was overqualified for this position but I wanted to give it a try anyways. Firstly, I was informed that it was for a higher level but just 1 hour before the interview I got an email from the recruiter that they out of nowhere decided to downgrade the level by 1 level meaning the package going down by 5000£. I was suspicious but because I spent good time preparing for the interview, I wanted still give it a try and my interview went very well. I had all the skill sets that they asked for and more. Also, I come with strong experience from top 4. So I was pretty confident. I was informed during the interview about the next steps and that they will come back in a day. And boom I was rejected. I am okay with rejection and I understand it as a hiring manager myself. I am open to failures and learning from them. But this was all fishy from the start and it ended the way I kinda expected. Ground rules when you interview for someone- 1. Never set wrong expectations 2. Never discuss about next steps in detail unless you are sure about the results 3. You never downgrade a level in like few hours lol. Anyways, it was a learning but I have decided to never apply for gopuff because of the experience I had with their recruitment team. I have given couple of interviews in other places that didnt go well but it was a pleasant experience to be associated with them for a short period of time and this was not it.

Why gopuff
Disorganized recruiting team. Interview was put on hold the day of. The interview was then changed to meet with the hiring manger a week later. When asked about the format and interview process, the recruiter never replied. The interview with the hiring manger was straight forward: questions about previous experience and behavior questions.
