Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

August 5, 2020
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

It wasn't a pleasant experience. During the onsite, almost everyone asked me whether I played games, and my answer was no. I was very surprised that they kept asking me this.

From the very beginning, when talking to the recruiter, I made it very clear that I don't play games. I stated that if that was a concern, I didn't want to waste everyone's time. I was told it wasn't an issue at all.

Apparently, it is part of their important culture. One engineer even asked me what I do after work if I don't play games. I felt quite offended and felt that what I do in my own time is really not their business.

Questions

Do you play games? Are you a game player?
