Software Developer Interview Experience

Process

Contacted via Career Fair, interviewed via phone, standard.

Asked by interviewer to confirm test scores, GPA, and other numbers, internships, and accomplishments on my resume. I actually found this really annoying since it's obviously true if I put it on my resume. If they don't have basic trust in me, why would I want to work for them?

Then asked to explain projects on my resume. Got to the next level easily, but was forced to take a 3-4 hour online proctored test.

I felt there was a complete lack of trust in the interviewee.

More information: The company has its proprietary language it uses along with VB6 (who the hell uses this language any more?). The interviewer was evasive about the number of hours worked, and Madison, Wisconsin? It might as well be in the North Pole relative to the other tech centers.

Recommendation: Don't bother. There are much better companies around Seattle or the Bay Area chasing good CS majors. Especially out of school, this is a dead-end company with dead-end technologies.
