Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I applied online. The process took four weeks.

The selection process consists of numerous steps. I completed the preliminary test and the first batch of five tasks, which took a total of about five hours, before I was rejected. The next steps would have been another batch of tasks and four interviews with HR and other software engineers. Of these, there is only one programming test where the code is only used to answer questions and is not part of the evaluation, one interview to get to know you with open-ended questions about yourself, and all the others are logic tests including multiple-choice, single-choice, and numerical questions. Some tasks were more complicated than others and quite long to understand because the exercise is a sort of narration where questions are asked gradually. I understand that this is perhaps the only way to objectively evaluate a person, but they are essentially generic tests on problems that a programmer will never encounter in their career 99.99% of the time, so they are a bit unfair from this point of view.

Questions

I signed an NDA regarding the questions.
