Software Engineer Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin

Process

Reached out by a recruiter. Had a 20-30 minute call with an engineer.

Got sent a "behavior test" and a custom Epic "assessment".

The behavior test took 20 minutes. Their custom Epic assessment was timed, proctored, and you needed to schedule it for a certain time and date.

It has:

  • A coding section
  • A speed round
  • A math section
  • A custom coding section where you learn the most unintuitive "custom" programming language.

The assessment took me a few hours and was pretty much a waste of my time. Honestly, one of the more frustrating software assessments because it was a large commitment and didn't make a whole lot of sense in terms of assessing a candidate's abilities.

Questions

Lots of unrelated math questions (Find next number in series), random logic riddles, and random mathematics calculations.

The coding section was easy (Basic LeetCode questions).

They have a custom coding section to assess how quick you learn things. This was easily the worst portion; it is the most unintuitive programming language.
