First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Fabric.
Product Manager
So the first interview was a phone call with HR, and she asked me about my experience as a PM and gave me an overview of the company. Then, I had an interview in English with a VP manager in the US. After that, I had another interview with a PM director, also in English. The final interview was with two product managers, where they asked about my work routine in my previous role and to describe the product I managed.
- They presented a scenario where one of the robots had an issue. What would you do in such a situation? Would you prioritize fixing the bug or delivering another feature?
- How do you measure success in the product that you currently manage?
Engineer
The job interview is a formal meeting between a candidate and an interviewer (or group of interviewers) with the aim of assessing the candidate's suitability for a job. It takes place in a quiet setting, like an office or meeting room, or online via video conference.
- Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
- What are your strengths and weaknesses?
- Can you tell me about your previous work experiences?
Backend Developer
The whole interview was online because of covid. It started with an intro and then building a restful web service for fabric jobs, with the interviewer giving me hints. Next was a design interview where I had to design a solution for a fabric world problem and explain it to two developers. After that, I had a chat with the R&D manager and a group lead. The last step was an HR chat. I turned down the offer because I had another one I wanted to check out. This company seems poised for massive growth, so I definitely recommend applying.
- Could you build a restful web service for fabric jobs?
- Can you design a small fabric-like system?
- How would you approach designing solutions for problems in the fabric world?
Fullstack Engineer
Talked to HR first, then did an online home assignment where I had to write a backend server. The task was to implement a system for a storage where cells (shelves) have characteristics and capacity, and to find a suitable shelf for a product based on its needs (e.g., refrigeration, capacity). I was given less than 90 minutes to complete it, with the added challenge of making the system easily extensible.
- Can you build a backend server that accepts a 2D array where each cell represents a shelf in a storage unit?
- This server should assign a character to each shelf, signifying its properties.
- For instance, if we receive 5 units of milk, the server needs to identify a shelf that has at least 5 available spots (out of 10 total) and possesses the 'refrigeration' characteristic.
