Software Engineer Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands

December 1, 2019
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I made an application through their website.

  • Step 1 - Faced a HackerRank challenge (4 algorithms)
  • Step 2 - Phone interview with recruiter (basic questions, very friendly)
  • Step 3 - Code challenge remote (2 challenges with 2 other programmers)
  • Step 4 - Flight and hotel paid to Amsterdam, and 4 interviews (HR, coding on paper, architecture, and manager)

The problem is that I never received feedback for step 4.

Questions

It is not easy, but not impossible (I believe).

Questions like:

  • What if your algorithm has to run over 1 billion rows?
  • Tell me about a bad feedback and how you faced it.
