Senior Software Engineer II Interview Experience - New York, New York

September 1, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process was quite bad. It wasted my time completely. I tried for nearly two weeks to schedule an interview. Then, after finally scheduling the final interviews, I received an email two days before that the position was no longer available. I was genuinely looking for something with them and delayed some other offers to do these interviews. My fault. It was a very off-putting system. But I get it, stuff happens.

What I am largely frustrated by was the recruiter's inability to respond to me. It was like he had some bitter vitriol towards responses. Keep in mind, over the past month or so, I have sent him several emails and texts to try and get something going.

Not one response. Not a measly, lone, singular response.

Questions

The recruiter assured me that the question would not be a LeetCode-type question. I received a LeetCode-ish type of question, but not exactly. The question involved processing some strings, obtaining the results, and filtering those results based on specific criteria. Honestly, it was an easy question; they were simply looking for programming knowledge and the ability to build a relatively simple system. The interviewer was pretty chill.

Was this helpful?
