Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - São Paulo, Brazil

Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months.

  • The process began with an email contact proposing a practical challenge with a set deadline, involving the construction of a calculation system.
  • After submitting the challenge, I participated in a live explanation session where more details about the next stages of the selection process were presented.
  • Following this phase, there was a wait time of approximately a month and a half for feedback. During this period, I got in touch a few times and was told that the process was delayed but would still continue.
  • Afterwards, I was invited to a technical interview lasting about an hour and a half, in which I was asked to evolve the exercise developed previously, deepening technical aspects and decision-making.

Overall, the process brought interesting challenges that were well-aligned with the technical proposal, but with a longer-than-expected response time between stages.

Questions

The questions were focused on the previously developed project. Initially, they asked me to explain how I structured the solution, addressing technical decisions, code organization, and implementation choices. Subsequently, a system evolution was proposed, requesting a new way of returning the data, which required adapting the solution and discussing possible approaches to meet the new requirement.
