Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Lyris.
Software Engineer
They asked about my background, like education and when I'd graduate. Then, we talked about my projects, both research and industry ones. Finally, there were some technical questions, not too hard but they really liked design patterns. Overall, the office is in downtown San Jose, easy to find, and the environment is great with nice people.
- Could you tell me about your experience with design patterns?
- Do you have any basic questions about Java?
Software Engineer
The interview was alright, not too tough. The interviewers were nice, but the company seems a bit odd. They just had layoffs but are still hiring, and the hiring managers can't seem to figure out what they need. Also, watch out for a specific recruiter; they don't seem to have the candidate's best interests in mind.
- Are you willing to work from 8 am to 5 pm daily, as the hours are tracked?
Software Engineer
I had an initial chat with HR, then talked to the hiring manager. After that, I went through an in-person group/panel interview. All the questions felt super relevant to the job, and there were no curveballs or tricky stuff.
- Tell me about COM Interop.
