Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ecosystem.
Project Engineer
The hiring process begins with an HR screening to check qualifications, experience, and cultural fit. Then, candidates do an online quiz that tests technical knowledge, logical reasoning, and situational judgment. After that, successful applicants go through one or more interviews (phone, video, or in-person), practical assessments, and final reference or background checks before an offer is made.
- What are your qualifications?
- What experience do you have?
- Are you a cultural fit for the company?
Project Engineer
So, I had this really weird interview. First, there was a timed online quiz with some technical questions, which is pretty standard. Then, I went into the office for an interview with two VPs. One VP was on Zoom, and the other was in the room with me. They gave me construction paper and asked some vague physics questions, some were like the online ones. I had to write or draw my answers and thought process on the paper while they just watched silently for like an hour and a half, no feedback or anything. Didn't get the job in the end.
- Considering a doghouse in a backyard during winter, would a warm bucket of water or a hot cup of coffee be better at warming it if placed inside?
Project Engineer
The main goal of the interview is to find people who are smart and good at technical stuff. It started with a quick phone call from HR. After that, I got a link to an online technical test that took about an hour. About a week later, I had an in-person interview with two engineers and an HR manager via video. Almost the entire interview was spent going over the online test questions, plus a few new ones. They really want to see if you'll ask for help and if you can ask the right questions. They'll give you any details or formulas if you just ask.
