Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - Vancouver, British Columbia

June 1, 2020
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

  1. Phone screen with recruiter.

Typical stuff about your current situation, the job itself, the team, and company. Nothing technical.

  1. Online coding challenge.

A few multiple-choice questions and a few programming questions.

Questions may involve coding up an algorithm to process some data or involve identifying issues given a piece of code. The time limit was around 2 hours for everything.

  1. Final interview.

Split into a few 1-hour sessions, with fellow engineers, quality assurance engineers, and the team manager. Topics covered the online coding challenge, a few network-related questions, and other technical stuff.

Note:

I did pretty well on the coding challenge, basically hitting 100%, and the interviewers also confirmed as such during the interview. I also felt I did pretty well on the interviews in general. However, I have never heard back from the recruiter after the interview. I waited one week to send a reminder asking for an update, but still never heard anything back from them.

Questions

  1. List all issues/pitfalls that you can find given some random piece of code.
  2. Fix all the issues/pitfalls that you listed.
