Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Deposco.
Principal Software Engineer
Had a technical video interview first, then an in-person interview at their office. The in-person interview had 3 people: the CTO, a Chief Architect, and a Principal Software Engineer. The technical interview focused on Java, Spring, and Databases. The in-person interview was a joke, they didn't seem serious about hiring. They asked maybe 2 questions and seemed to want me to get stuck to make me feel incompetent. Their behavior was unprofessional, laughing behind me while I was writing on the whiteboard. I suspect they have a toxic work environment. One interviewer was too scared to ask questions in front of the CTO and Chief Architect.
- Can you explain how transactions work in Java?
- Could you explain about ETL?
Software Engineer
The interview process was straightforward. First, I had a 15-minute video call with the recruiter about my background and skills. After that, I had a technical screening with the HR manager.
- Can you explain the difference between .equals() and == in Java?
- Could you define what a singleton class is?
- What are the differences between left, right, and inner joins in SQL?
Software Engineer
There were 3 interview rounds: a phone screen, a technical on-site, and a final chat with the CEO. The first two were mainly about Java and SQL technical questions. The CEO interview was more of a 'conversation' about my life goals and purpose, which really highlighted a lot of potential issues with the company culture. It felt like they expect employees to overwork and figure things out on their own. The CEO's vibe was condescending, disguised as 'advice'. Honestly, I wish they'd covered the culture part first so I wouldn't have wasted my time.
- Can you share your life story?
- What is your purpose in life?
