Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
I applied online for the role.
Soon after, I received an email from a recruiter telling me I would go through a technical coding interview.
The coding interview went well. The engineer who interviewed me was super nice, making me feel comfortable and providing helpful guidance.
After the interview, I received an email stating they would not continue with my application.
There was no feedback on the interview. I asked for some, but received no answer. It seems like it was only a rejection email template.

Goldman Sachs Work Experiences
- 2.0Place for mediocre tech peopleSenior Software Engineer • Former EmployeeLondon, England, United KingdomJuly 6, 2017Pros: Decent salary, well-educated, and eloquent people. A great place to work in IT if you have minimal or no tech skills, but you like to talk a lot about things that should be done instead of doing them.Cons: Proprietary technology - no reusable skills. Long hours on the phone (as a software engineer) instead of development/design. Most people never worked anywhere else. This is not because they are so good, but rather they wouldn't get a job anywhere else. Perfect GS strategy to keep employees.
