Graduate Software Developer Interview Experience - Sydney, Australia
May 1, 2019
Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Four stages after the initial application:
- Online coding test (HackerRank).
- Behavioural phone interview: questions about your resume and academic transcript.
- Technical phone interview: algorithms and data structures, but no actual coding.
- Onsite interview: In-depth behavioural, then technical (no coding, but need to describe the algorithms and data structures in detail).
What stood out is they gave feedback after the phone and onsite interviews. And although I didn’t get an offer, the rejection was by phone call and they gave more feedback. This contributes to my rating of “positive”.
