Senior Software Lead Engineer Interview Experience - Boston, Massachusetts

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

It was a two step process, they called over the phone first which was a good screening interview.

Based on that I was asked to come onsite for a face to face interview. I was in a different state so I flew-in despite 6 hour delayed flight due snow storm to make sure I reach on time for the next day afternoon interview.

To my surprise I was greeted by a developer who was simply connected me to 3 remote managers via his laptop. They took their time to connect and were constantly dropping off. I was asked to do a white-boarding exercise which none of them could read as laptop camera was not sharp enough. I was having trouble listening to them as laptop microphone speaker was not that clear enough. They did not even look at my resume or asked anything from ~10+ years of work experience.

It seemed like they either had already a candidate or something else was happening, it could be just bad luck for me due to this heavy snow storm that came a day earlier.

But overall I felt they were very unorganized and not completely sure what they want. I did expect better process oriented environment from such a big company.

Questions

A programming problem to do on whiteboard then a behavior puzzle question.
