Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience

May 13, 2019
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process involved:

  • A 20-minute coding challenge (work sample style interview).
  • A 20-minute behavior interview with the recruiter.
  • A 4-hour onsite, which included:
    • Two technical rounds working on a single work sample interview.
    • One round with the engineering manager.
    • A closing interview with HR.

They took a week to get back to me after the final onsite. The rejection arrived via a no-reply email, so I couldn't even ask for feedback. This was very unprofessional, considering how much time I had sunk into this application.

Questions

Their technical interviews are work samples.

If you feel intimidated by that style of interview, I would recommend studying Flask, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
