Associate Software Engineer Interview Experience - Pleasanton, California

May 1, 2015
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online on the company website.

A week later, a Veeva recruiter contacted me. At first, she wanted me to consider the position of Automation Development Engineer, New Grad, but I requested to be interviewed for the position listed above. They ultimately agreed to interview me for the SE position.

This was a 1 1/2-hour phone interview. In the last 30 minutes of the interview, I was expected to code a solution to a programming problem on Collabedit. What I found really strange about this was that the interviewer did not want or expect me to explain my thought process. He just wanted to see the answer at the end of the interview.

Questions

Find the oldest sisters of the given Person object. This class recursively defines a Person's father, Person's mother, and a List of children.

They also asked some standard questions about general OOP concepts and databases.

They also asked me about my experiences with school projects and the like.
