Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Boston, Massachusetts

May 1, 2025
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Just another company that thinks they are FAANG.

First, you are sent a tedious take-home exam. It claims to be "real world and practical" but it's not, and it takes about 3 hours.

Then, you will have a very scripted and pointed behavioral discussion with a recruiter.

This is followed up by a 5-round virtual onsite with more LeetCode, behavioral interviews, and a technical presentation.

Then comes a team match round.

I was rejected somewhere in the middle with just a generic, automated response.

Questions

A puzzle-style, coding Olympics-type question to parse a JSON payload and post it to another endpoint.
