Software Test Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
A recruiter messaged me about interviewing for a software test engineering position in the San Francisco office.
The entire process was rather involved. It consisted of:
- Several phone screens
- A programming assignment, which I spent something like 6 hours on
- An ~5-hour on-site interview
Given this, I find it extremely unprofessional that it's been something like 3 weeks since I interviewed, and I haven't heard anything back from Unity – no offer, no rejection, no updates, nothing.
So, I hope my experience can be a tale of caution for others who are considering applying here. Think twice before investing a lot of time in a programming test and/or taking a day off of work to interview there.
