Software Engineer III Interview Experience - Portland, Oregon

Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

A one-hour phone screen with two or three people. I had to talk through the design of a chat system, including client, server, API, etc. Not bad.

I was then called in for an onsite interview. The first hour was an interrogation by seven people sitting around a big conference table, firing question after question at me. Then, all but two left, and I had a two-plus-hour whiteboarding exercise. Not fun.

I honestly thought I did pretty well, but apparently not. I didn't get an offer.

This place seems to put a lot of emphasis on your ability to perform in front of large groups for extended periods of time.

Thankfully, they mainly focused on technology and didn't ask a lot of those types of questions, such as: "Tell me about a time you had a conflict with another employee."

Besides the stress of the lengthy group interviews, it seems like a cool place to work.

Questions
