Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

September 25, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through an employee referral.

It's been impossible to get my actual review of this company approved without it being immediately flagged no matter how general I make it, which leads me to wonder what other information about this company is being suppressed. Just know that the process is disorganized and a waste of time. I was left in the dark after interviews for weeks and then given a generic rejection email without any feedback once I got to the code challenge.

Questions

Lots of behavioral questions and then a TypeScript web scraping challenge that suddenly became a vanilla JS challenge the day of.
