Senior Software Engineer In Test Interview Experience - Barcelona, Spain
Process
I had a first interview with an HR representative and someone from the QA department. It took around 30 minutes and was more about my general experience, including an overview and the tools I've used.
For the second interview, which was a live coding session, I had to code a FizzBuzz test. Once I was done, they changed the test slightly (FizzBuzzRazz, see below) and asked me to refactor the code. However, the interviewers made a mistake with the requirements for the second exercise, and it took me a bit longer to realize there was an issue. They confirmed I was right, updated the requirements, and I finally completed it.
After waiting a week, they replied saying I hadn't been selected for the role without providing any reason. This was unusual and not very professional.
Questions
Code a FizzBuzzRazz test.
If it's divisible by 3, print "Fizz". If it's divisible by 5, print "Buzz". If it's divisible by 7, print "Razz". If it's divisible by 3 and 5, print "FizzBuzz". If it's divisible by 3 and 7, print "FizzRazz". If it's divisible by 5 and 7, print "BuzzRazz".

Typeform Work Experiences
- 4.0Very fun, but at times frustratingSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeBarcelona, SpainJune 6, 2019Pros: The people: talented, humble, fun, and caring (for the most part). The environment: great city, culture, offices, and perks (coffee, lunch, beer, events, flexible hours, unlimited holidays <3). The product: loved by the customers, flexible enough to improve/extend, and still growing in usage and popularity.Cons: The management: Hard work goes unrecognized. Doing next to no work seems acceptable at times. There's a general lack of awareness from leadership and management. The opportunities: Decision-making is not really a team consensus. Constant hiring of seniors means it's hard to progress. Pushing through your own ideas is tough.

Well, let's define better objectives next quarter!
