Senior iOS Engineer Interview Experience - Mumbai, India

June 1, 2020
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process started with initial calls with their recruitment team and was followed by an online multiple-choice test.

After that, two rounds of remote interviews were scheduled with current PhonePe employees. This scheduling process was not handled well. The PhonePe recruiter was unavailable to answer simple questions or describe what the next interview rounds would entail.

The first remote interview involved fixing a problem in an existing Xcode project. The problem was not particularly challenging. At one point, even the interviewer seemed stumped and wondered if they had mistakenly sent an older problem.

The second interview was a straightforward test of algorithms.

They later summarily rejected my application without providing an explanation. After probing, they revealed that I had failed the second technical interview round, which seemed like an excuse.

Summary: Their recruitment team was unprofessional, unresponsive, and called at odd hours. The interview process was not clearly explained. The overall experience was poor. The engineers I spoke with seemed unimpressive and did not provide clear answers to basic engineering process questions about their company.
