Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I had a call with a recruiter, and then a month later the interview was scheduled. This was a coding interview that consisted of two parts.

The first part was more situation-based (tell me a situation when...). I think I answered these very well.

The rest was a coding problem (very easy). I managed to solve it and got very good performance (time and space complexity).

I received a reply the second day saying that they would not go any further with my application, but they didn't say why. I wish they could have sent some feedback because it is really discouraging when you don't know the reason.

Questions

The problem was to create two methods:

  • One that accepts a timestamp and records a hit.
  • The second to get the number of hits in the last 300 seconds.
