Coding Behavioral

I got selected for a coding exercise after I reached out to the recruiter. Then there was one coding exercise and after that, a behavioral interview with managers. So there were just two rounds in total. The whole process did take a long time though.

Behavioral Technical

It was a 3 round interview process. First, an initial HR screening with basic questions about your experience, what you expect, and the job description. Then, a second interview with the team manager to talk more about the role and see if you'd be a good fit. The last round would have been with the rest of the team to check compatibility.

  • Tell me about your past help desk experience.
  • What's your experience like with onboarding new hires or new systems?

Behavioral Technical

The interview process started with a 30-minute phone screen, then another phone screen with a QA team member. This was followed by a three-hour video interview that included the QA team, developers, and the hiring manager. After the third step, I was asked to wait because they were finishing up other interviews. It took two weeks to hear back, and I had to email both the hiring manager and the recruiter. The hiring manager responded, mentioning a delay due to a winter storm, which was understandable. However, despite further emails to the recruiter, I never received an update on my application. The lack of communication was very disappointing, especially given the company's good reputation. The interview process felt too long and extensive for the role, and the poor communication after the interviews made the overall experience worse. I have since accepted a position elsewhere.

Behavioral Technical Coding

It took about a month and a half from applying to getting the final decision. First, there was a recruiter phone call, then a technical phone screen, followed by a take-home iOS project. The final stage was a video interview where they reviewed my project and asked a lot of technical and behavioral questions. The recruiter didn't get back to me between interview rounds. I thought the final interview would be more about culture fit, but it wasn't. The interviewers weren't very friendly and seemed uninterested. It took over two weeks to hear back about the final decision, with no updates in between. For a small company, it felt very corporate, almost like a big corporation, maybe due to the Boeing acquisition. It's a shame I put a lot of effort into the polished iOS app project, but didn't get an offer, and they didn't seem that interested in it.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Lots of behavioral questions were asked.
  • Some common questions related to software engineering were also asked.
