Behavioral Technical Coding Case Presentation

The interview process was a marathon. I went through 5 rounds of interviews, not including a case study and a coding test. Honestly, even major tech companies don't have this many rounds. The case study felt like a real business problem they're dealing with, which was pretty interesting, but make sure you really think through your solutions before presenting them!

Behavioral Technical

I applied online and after an initial phone screen, I was invited for an in-office interview with the hiring manager. However, the hiring manager was sick, so instead of postponing, the recruiter kept the interview slot and I ended up interviewing with the hiring manager's boss. I felt the interview went well, and the recruiter told me I'd hear back that week about next steps and when an interview with the hiring manager would be scheduled. I tried following up for a month, but the recruiter ignored me. It's unprofessional not to follow up when you say you will, especially when I was told I'd hear back within the week.

Behavioral Technical

I had a phone screener and then a phone interview with the hiring manager, but I didn't get the job. They asked some tough and unexpected questions in the hiring manager interview. When I asked for feedback after they rejected me, they said my answer to 'What is something you would like to work on about yourself?' was the reason why and that they were looking for more experience. I guess I really messed up there.

I had to build an app to show news and pictures with REST. After they liked the app and moved me forward, I talked about the app with the team lead and another senior dev. We went over the frameworks and libraries I picked, plus the logic and algorithms.
