Software Developer Interview Experience - Austin, Texas
Process
The interview process consisted of two telephonic rounds and one onsite interview. The onsite interview included three one-on-one interviews and a 90-minute coding challenge.
In the first round, I was asked to remove duplicates from two sorted lists. I answered this using hash maps/sets, which is what they were looking for.
The second round was an online test, where I was asked two questions in 70 minutes. The first question was to validate parentheses, and the second was to transfer prisoners from one jail to another, for which I had to use the Union-Find algorithm.
Questions
Mostly general algorithm questions.

Indeed Work Experiences
- 4.0Good place to work compared to other tech spacesSoftware Developer • Former EmployeeAustin, Texas, United StatesJuly 24, 2024Pros: - Tried to train their employees and promote from within the company. - Good benefits (then again I’m a single person & decently healthy) - Internal mobility is pretty easy if you have your supervisor’s supportCons: At the end of the day, the decisions are profit-driven versus people-driven, and often times those are at odds. Senior leadership has been a bit unhinged the past few years. They hired like crazy and then they let people go like crazy after hiring the Kellogg's HR lady as Indeed’s head of HR. She was known for union busting during her time at Kellogg's, but she’s gone now, so who knows what’s next. It seems like leadership is still trying to figure that out. The last 3-4 years at Indeed have been full of org changes and shuffling people around. Who knows when they’ll get it right.

- 1.0Great Internship, Full-time Offer RescindedSoftware Developer • Former EmployeeAustin, Texas, United StatesMarch 25, 2023Pros: Great internship experience. People are nice and caring.Cons: After Indeed layoffs, I don't know what to expect from Indeed. I don't know how they can help people get jobs while laying off their employees and rescinding new grad offers without helping them find another job.
