Software Engineer Interview Experience - Melbourne, Australia

February 7, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks.

I applied through their website. I got a call from HR in a few days. A coding task was given for refactoring. I had to discuss and refactor the code during the technical interview. During the interview, I showed them how I would refactor the code. The interviewer and I had a debate on the naming conventions of CQRS queries and commands. He was insisting on following non-standard naming conventions. However, I also showed him Microsoft's standards on CQRS naming conventions, but he did not accept that. He seemed full of ego.

Questions

Refactor the piece of code. What is dependency injection?
