Backend Engineer Platform Interview Experience - Netherlands
July 1, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Overall, it was confusing. A complete waste of time, since I passed all technical interviews but was not a fit for the team my recruiter picked for me.
Don't be fooled by the 'stack agnostic' statements; it's not true. There are very few teams willing to take on engineers with experience in languages other than Java.
I wish the recruiter had been more transparent about which teams they needed people for and had sought my input before proposing teams.
Questions
- Algorithms (some string matching)
- System design (a GUID generator)
- Team interview (apparently they want you to focus on Product stories, which I wish I knew beforehand. I only focused on technical answers. None of the interviewers pointed out that I should answer the questions from a Product perspective.)
