Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

October 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process was highly disorganized.

The recruiter gave me a set of teams to select from and initially told me that there would be an onsite interview. Later, she set up phone interviews with the teams.

One of the interviewers asked for a programming interview, but my recruiter didn't arrange for that despite my repeated emails. I was then dropped from consideration for that team, which I wasn't told about until I had to send them repeated emails.

Finally, they asked me to fly to headquarters and interview with two teams.

On-site, one of the team interviews was pretty easy. It was with the manager, and he wanted to know more about me and almost offered me a job on that team.

The second team had about five rounds of interviews, all technical. After the interviews, they asked me to send team preferences, and within two hours, they sent me a rejection. I asked them what happened to the "almost offer" and was met with radio silence!

There was no feedback and nothing after the harrowing process they put me through.
