Process
I applied for a junior software engineer internship.
During the interview, I was asked about general software engineering topics.
These topics included:
- Technical questions, such as the basics of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP).
- Non-technical questions, such as "What are some projects you have worked on inside and outside of college?"
- Topics related to my interests outside of general computer science.
Questions
What is inheritance in OOP?

Not good anymore
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
September 14, 2025
Pros: Good perks. Good workplace. Health care.
Cons: Bad leadership. They hire more and more managers and micromanage people. Managers are quite pushy. They don't care about you; they care about their KPIs. It makes me feel I am a slave here.
The company aims to turn around and highly invests in AI, but there are little outcomes from it.
A couple of layoffs in the past two years make people feel uncertainty.
