I applied online and spoke with a recruiter. It took about a week and a half to get scheduled for a technical screen. One thing I've noticed is that if the recruiters are not top-notch and doing everything they can for you, it might not be somewhere you want to work.
The technical interview was normal. I just wished my recruiter had let me know more on what to expect. I was caught off guard with random Java & SQL questions.
The interviewer was a manager, and I wished I would have gotten anyone else. He just seemed uninterested the entire time.
We did a coding problem together, and I was trying my best to involve him and make it a collaborative experience, but he just wasn't interested.
I solved the question with ease, and he didn't even follow up with time or space questions.
But if we're being honest, that's not a "fun" manager I would be excited to work with. I received the decline email two days after solving the coding question.
Broad Java questions. Coding question using HashMap.
