Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington

May 1, 2019
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was contacted through a job website by a company recruiter. After talking on the phone with them, I was sent a take-home test. Following the take-home test, I was invited to an on-site interview.

The on-site wasn't great. My first interviewer was remote; they brought in a laptop, faced it towards me, and had someone across the country Skype in. This interviewer was a bit hostile, asking questions about current projects, then posing nonsensical 'What if?' scenarios about them, and becoming frustrated. The interviewers also seemed to hint at a lack of teamwork between them, as well as some workplace bullying.

They didn't make an offer, and I wasn't interested.

Questions

A few "LeetCode" type questions, as well as some design questions about how to lay out an application.
