UI Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

May 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Internal recruiters seemed slow and unorganized in arranging interviews. After being told to provide dates of availability, I had to re-establish contact when the lack of communication extended beyond the dates I provided.

The interviewer sounded like they had just read my resume before the call.

They asked about an interesting UI feature in an app I liked but were not knowledgeable in 3D basics to go into technical details on the interface. Consequently, they asked some basic UIKit questions about the UI of a popular social media app.

Overall, the interviewer was very mechanical and lacked any warmth. I got the impression they had a narrow technical range of expertise, and they admitted to not having interviewed anyone for this position before. I felt they had a lack of concern for the entire interview; it seemed like a last-minute chore imposed upon them.

A day later, a friend informed me that two people had already been hired for the role a few weeks earlier.
