I had a good time talking with the hiring team. It was a very technical interview where we went into detail about the hardware projects on my resume. Then, we discussed how I would minimize the risk associated with household objects.

Technical Behavioral

Got a call for an interview and we set a date to meet at their office. They called again asking to reschedule. I called them back from my cell, and the interviewer said, "It was not him." I got another call asking if I still wanted to interview two days later. I went for the interview, and it was a waste of time. One interviewer wouldn't look at me and took notes on everything I said. The other interviewer, "not him," was skeptical about my verifiable history. I deleted my resume after the interview.

Behavioral Technical

The interview had a really friendly vibe. They asked general knowledge questions to check my basic subject knowledge. They were also assessing how spontaneous I am and how confident I am. The interviewer even tried to confuse me when I got an answer right, just to see how I'd handle it and check my confidence.

  • Can you tell me about software testing?
  • What are some software testing methodologies you are familiar with?
