Software Engineer Interview Experience

February 1, 2020

Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Because there were no vacant positions available at the time, this was an informational interview.

A very simple and direct process.

Initial phone screen.

Basic company background info and culture questions.

I would have had a take-home coding challenge or on-site live coding challenge before interviewing with the hiring manager then company leadership.

Great experience. I wish there was a vacancy at the time.

Cons: Low pay, too structured, and no room for innovation. You join as a floating body and have to find your own roles in the organization. There is no guarantee you will be doing what you were hired for. Everyone loves Accenture a bit too much; it's like a cult.
