Process

Two rounds, a 30-minute phone call with a recruiter, and a 1-hour Zoom call with a software developer.

Questions

Technical: 4 Pillars of OOP and how you've used them in a project.

Behavioral: A time you had to adapt to change.

Affected my confidence as a developer

Software Engineer • Former Employee

Galway, Ireland

Pros: Good salary and benefits, flexible hours, really good graduate training, and a thought-through software development process. Good corporate values.

Cons: Politics, management who rewards and backslaps themselves, treated badly. This was my first job, and my confidence as a developer after leaving this job was on the floor. More time was spent going to and from meetings than doing development. There was little or no travel. Favoritism. Once key people get a bad opinion of you, you're put in a category of useless people.
