First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Berkley Technology Services.
Management
Had a few interviews for the role. It involved technical and behavioral aspects, and also an interview with a senior manager. They gave me the chance to ask questions about the position and anything else I was curious about. It was important to be prepared with examples of my past work.
- Can you describe how you manage employee performance, whether it's excelling or underperforming?
Software Intern
It was mostly just talking with some live coding, but you could use whichever language you wanted. The live coding part wasn't too tough, mine was mainly about working with arrays and making sure the code was optimized. Be ready to chat about your resume and any personal projects you've done.
- Can you explain what REST APIs are?
- Tell me about a technical difficulty you encountered and how you managed to get past it.
- Can you tell me about your resume and any projects you've worked on?
Software Engineer
Had 4 interviews for the job. Initially, I was told I wasn't technical enough. Then, they called me back a few weeks later because they realized they were understaffed. I interviewed with the same people twice and they asked the same questions. I found out the manager isn't familiar with the system and managers move around a lot – one manager I interviewed with had changed roles 6 times in his 8 years there, indicating a lack of stability. HR denied me because they were fixated on a prior non-compete agreement from a completely different industry and wouldn't review it. They were worried I'd recruit from my previous job, even though I wouldn't be in management and wouldn't risk getting sued.
- Given information from 10 individuals, what are two positive and two negative outcomes?
- Regarding server admin experience, what is your background?
- Can you elaborate on your server administration expertise?
Systems Engineer
The hiring process was really drawn out. It kicked off with a phone screen with HR. The HR interviewer seemed really disengaged, like I was bothering her and she'd rather be doing something else. She was even late to call me, which wasn't a great start. Next, I spoke with a manager from the department I applied to. This manager was much more engaged and explained the role's expectations clearly. Then, I had an onsite interview where I met several people. The office itself was nice and in a good location. Unfortunately, I never heard back after that. I followed up multiple times via email and phone calls to HR, but didn't even get a basic rejection email. I put a lot of time into this, and a simple form letter would have been appreciated. Oh well, I guess it just wasn't meant to be.
- Manager was more job specific.
- Questions were very basic.
