Software Development Engineer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Applied online and received an email from the recruiter after a couple of weeks.

  1. HackerRank Test. A very simple time overlapping question. Solved in time.

  2. After more than a week, scheduled the Skype interview on the Codility platform. Designed and developed social media feed, follower, unfollow, get feed, post message, etc., functionality. Implemented, but did not have time to correct some syntax errors. The interviewer was nice and happy, but I'm not sure about the onsite as they seemed not interested in hiring anymore. The recruiter said there was no onsite availability for two weeks. Perhaps I'll have to accept another pending offer as a deadline is approaching.

Questions

Very simple time overlapping question. Solved in time.

Designed and developed social media feed, follower, unfollow, get feed, and post message functionalities. Implemented, but did not have time to correct some syntax errors. The interviewer was nice, but I'm not sure about the onsite.

None of the questions from previously posted on Glassdoor, like networking/why Yelp/Java/Unix, etc., were asked. It was a straightforward design and develop social media task.
