Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States

January 1, 2017

Process

Terrible and very time consuming interview process. Applied online and had to complete a Business Insight Assessment. After that step, I was invited to take a HireVue online assessment, which was 5 coding questions, 12 reading articles and analyzing graph questions, 5 video response questions (one doesn't count), and 2 type a response/email to a scenario questions.

You'll be drained by the end of it and it's a classic example of a company being very cheap during the interview process. At the end of it, I don't even want to work at Barclays anymore.
