First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at LexisNexis Legal & Professional.
Legal Content AI Engineer
I had an initial phone call which went fine, and was told I would receive a take-home task later that day. I didn't receive the task until two weeks later, yet I still completed and returned it the very same day. I received a "Thanks" a week later, but nothing else. I chased up two weeks after that, and the recruiter promised to come back to me that week. Another week passed, I asked for an update, and I have still not received a reply. A complete waste of time.
- Can you tell me what you know about Lexis Nexis?
Data Analyst
First, there was a quick chat with HR to go over my background and see if I was a good fit for the company vibe. Then, I got a take-home assignment to show off my analytical and technical chops. After that, we had a technical chat to go through my assessment and talk about the methods I used and some core concepts. Finally, I met with some senior folks (VP/Director level) to talk about the bigger picture, business impact, and how I align with their goals.
- How do you manage datasets with missing or inconsistent information?
- Can you differentiate between an inner join and a left join in SQL?
- What methods would you use to detect outliers in data?
HR and Hiring Manager
The HR side of things felt really impersonal. It started with an HR screening where I just had to fill out a form without any intro. Then I got a coding assessment. The questions were basic, but a couple were about a programming language I don't know and hadn't mentioned. I emailed HR about this, but got no apology. After passing the assessment, I got an email to schedule an interview, but they didn't even ask for my availability. The technical interviewers seemed unprepared and only glanced at my CV. They had questions for a different programming language and said the job required it. They asked basic tech questions and gave a coding test, which felt like just killing time. It was a total waste of time.
- Can you explain what generics are and provide an example of how you would use them?
- Could you answer some basic technical questions?
Software Engineer
Great interview process. The HR was very helpful and kept me informed. It started with an HR call about my skills, followed by a technical assessment. Then, I had a MS Teams call with the Manager and a Principal Software Engineer. After that, another MS Teams call with the Software Engineering Lead, and finally, a call with the Engineering Director. It was a very straightforward process, with mostly behavioral questions and some basic Java/C# questions. You should know your collections, data structures, algorithms, and OOP concepts.
- Could you tell me why you're looking to leave your current job?
- Explain the difference between method overload and override, and mention any associated keywords.
- What is a static class, what's its purpose, and how does it differ from an interface or abstract class?
