Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

November 1, 2016
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process included:

  • One technical phone screen.
  • An hour-long coding challenge.

After that, I was invited on-site for a full day of interviews, comprising about five or six 45-minute sessions.

Unfortunately, I did not receive an offer. They stated I performed well on the coding challenges and was a great cultural fit, but they did not assess me as senior enough for an architecture role.

Communication with the San Francisco recruiter was difficult, with no email responses for over two weeks after my on-site interview.

Despite this, I was impressed with the company culture and found it to be a beautiful work atmosphere.
