Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Chapel Hill, North Carolina

March 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was given a take-home code test. I had to do two algorithms.

Then I had a virtual interview that lasted 5 hours.

There were lots of behavioral leadership questions, very similar to ones you find if you google "Amazon leadership questions".

Three code tests were also included, and one system design question.

The system design was probably the most negative experience I have had thus far in my years of interviewing. The interviewer was very critical, and it was overall an unpleasant experience. It didn’t feel like a normal back-and-forth discussion.

The recruiter who reached out was nice and pleasant, though.
