Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States

March 1, 2024
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Step 1 - Recruiter Call: Basic background information to see if the role is a fit.

Step 2 - Initial Tech Screen: An easy DP question (climbing stairs).

Step 3 - Superday:

  • Coding interview: A modified Fibonacci sequence question.
  • System design: A leaderboard question.
  • Language-specific question: A coding question regarding implicits in Scala.
  • Hiring Manager: Standard questions about how you work in a team, handle conflict, etc.

The technology interviews were very fair. However, the recruiter was a pain to work with. I never received any correspondence after the final interview, where I was told I would hear back within 2-3 days. The week finished and I heard nothing, and the recruiter did not respond to my email asking for a follow-up (by now I was expecting a rejection).

My status was not updated until 3 weeks later in Workday, and still no rejection email was sent. The recruiters there are awful.
