Hilti Group Software Engineer interview: vague rejection feedback

My first conversation was directly with the hiring manager and felt scrutinizing from the start. The focus seemed to stay on critical points in my resume. The positive parts of my experience and what excited me got little time, so I felt I was defending myself instead of discussing technical background and motivation.

Questions came quickly, with limited room to expand. I also asked about the role, team, and expectations, but those points were only partly covered and I left without a clear picture. After I was rejected, I asked for feedback and eventually received it in writing.

Much of it was vague: I needed "more energy," "more dynamik," or "more creativity," with no concrete examples. It did not feel like a balanced exchange, and I left with more questions than clarity.

Location: Schaan. Overall feedback: negative. Offer status: no offer.
