I once interviewed at a startup. They asked all kinds of questions, technical and other, which was fine. They made me an offer, which I accepted. Then, I received the following: "About your offer, here at XXX we have the practice of doing an induction test before signing any contracts with any new hires." This was the first time I had heard about this. It would have been fine if they did the induction test before they made the offer, but I had never heard of it being done after an offer. I told them: "I was very surprised to get this message. I thought I had already
gone through all the technical screening steps during the interview
process. To be told that I have to go through another screening
step, even after you verbally made me an offer and had me fill
in all the paperwork, is simply not professional. I'm inclined to say let's call the whole thing off. It isn't
clear that you really want me to work for you. Can you convince
me that this isn't true?" Needless to say, I didn't go work for them. |
