QA Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Typical interview process:
- HR screening
- Meeting with HM
- Technical Interview
- Panel Interview (which was 4 hours long)
During the technical interview, I was asked questions pertaining to the frameworks the team uses and an easy LeetCode question.
Biggest critique: During the panel interview with the senior QAs, both seemed uninterested in being there and gave off a cold demeanor. They didn't give me time to answer the questions, and I was continuously cut off.
The rest of the team and the HR recruiter, Nadia, were lovely.
