Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I was contacted by HR, who was very nice and followed up timely with updates.

The interview process consisted of a phone screen (one round with a coding question) and then a virtual onsite (four rounds). Three of these were coding rounds, and one was with the Hiring Manager (HM). In each round, they asked both behavioral and coding questions. The HM, in particular, did not ask many behavioral or technical questions, and the interview concluded rather abruptly in the middle, giving me the impression they might have already made their decision.

Their questions weren't difficult (somewhat medium level, like LeetCode, as others have described). However, the key difference from most other companies I've interviewed with was their expectation for:

  • 100% bug-free code (and no poorly formatted syntax errors on HackerRank).
  • Very quick problem-solving with optimal solutions.
  • Swift and accurate Big O notation analysis.

Senior candidates should also code as if shipping to a real production environment (remember to follow proper coding conventions).

Overall, their bar seemed more picky than high. I hadn't expected a positive outcome and felt it might be a waste of my time, having read about others' experiences. I suppose I just wanted to complete the final interview process and, worst-case scenario, move forward with offers from other companies.
