Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, England

August 10, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took one week.

It was a negative experience. They have a first interview where they ask you questions from your current role, and they send a home test that you have to spend too much time on because they check every detail. They cancel you because they find small issues that are actually not.

In my case, they rejected me because I didn't have comments everywhere and not much tests. They want you to cover every line of code, and even if you do that, they are going to find something else. It seems that they don't have actual positions and they reject anyone. Avoid taking a home test.

Questions

The home test is in Java. It takes a lot of time, and you have to study some finance concepts.
