Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Sydney, Australia

February 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

After going through the interview, I understand why their interview process is so negatively rated on Glassdoor. The interviews are really easy. For me, there were four rounds.

I honestly would recommend anyone not to proceed with their interview process unless they truly want to work for the company. There is no learning involved, and at the end, you feel that your time was wasted.

I received the rejection after a week. When I asked for specific feedback, I received vague statements like:

  • Could've been better in discussions.
  • Could've been better in managing time.

Questions

  1. A screening round, which was an easy machine coding round.

  2. An algorithmic round, which was an hour discussion on BFS.

  3. A machine coding round to fix tests and discuss design around user experiments.

  4. An algorithmic discussion regarding Conway's Game of Life.
