Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Irvine, California

December 1, 2020
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process was as follows:

  1. Basic screening
  2. Hour-long personality interview with members of the team
  3. Longer technical interview
  4. "In-person" interview, which was virtual due to COVID
  5. Got ghosted because of systemic incompetence (happened twice :), I'm sure that gives away who I am; I don't care)
  6. Realized applying to Blizzard was a complete waste of time because they don't respect your time enough to even tell you they went with someone else, twice.
