iOS Engineer Interview Experience - Salt Lake City, Utah

April 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Extensive process that included assessment and video interview. Based on the first step, it was obvious I would need to answer questions precisely and that they had high expectations in terms of accuracy and expertise.

I was told I did very well in the first step and video interview and would be contacted right away for a group interview. I was never contacted and had to reach out several times before being told I would not be moving forward with the process.

I was misled about my chances, and they had very high expectations around their employees' professionalism, but the whole experience was very discouraging. They were also misleading about how low salaries were for my position. I would not suggest anyone apply for a job at this company.

The recruiter I dealt with kept apologizing for having a short attention span and not being able to respond to messages in a timely manner.

Questions

Among others, what is the difference between two iOS apps: CocoaPods and TTKit? In 100 words or less, what is an optimal scalable distribution process? How would I deal with a failed app launch, and why should women work for Thumbtack as engineers?
