Process

I've done five interviews.

The first one was conducted over the phone. I was asked to go through my CV, describing my previous working experiences. I was given information about the company and about the team that I might work with. I was also asked to solve a problem; the resolution of the problem was discussed over the phone with the interviewer. At the end, I was given some time to ask questions about Workday.

Then, I went on-site where I did three interviews, each lasting approximately 45 minutes.

  • The first one was about cultural situations, and I was requested to come up with possible approaches.
  • The second one was about design. I explained the architecture of a project that I've worked on, including how it scales and what happens when there is an issue.
  • The third one was mainly about coding. They asked me to implement something on the whiteboard and then asked me some questions about the language that I will be working with.

I have to say that at every stage, all the interviewers were really friendly. I could tell that the whole process was well prepared, which made me feel that I wasn't wasting my time.
