Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

April 6, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a staffing agency.

A third-party recruiter contacted me and set up a Zoom meeting with the lead recruiter, who set up a technical round with one of the engineers. The interviewer turned up 30 minutes late, pasted a hard LeetCode problem, started munching a burger, kept looking down, and was for some reason not interested in anything I wrote on the screen. There was very poor communication, and he probably did not understand any of the standard questions he was asking. Thirty minutes were up, and he said that "I will grant you 30 more minutes as I came late." Then, at the end, he asked me, "Do you have a solution?" when he obviously saw I was struggling with the problem and had covered only partial use cases. My advice to anyone interviewing here would be to stay as far away as possible because there were just too many red flags.
