Motive Qa Engineer Interview Questions
& Process

The whole interview thing at Motive took me about a month and a half. I had to go through 5 stages: first, there was an online test, then a chat with HR, followed by a round with the manager and a coding challenge. The last round, round 5, was a panel interview with 4 people. Interestingly, in the final round, I spoke with the manager, but he didn't ask me to code anything or throw any tech questions my way. Still, I got rejected there. What can you do!

So I had a really bad experience with this company. It started with an HR call and then went into three interview rounds. The first round was with the Hiring Manager for about an hour, mainly covering the role and asking me to talk about myself. Then, there was a huge second round with five people, lasting two hours, where they asked a bunch of technical and non-technical questions. The third round was with the Senior Manager or Director, focused on cultural fit. The interviewers themselves were nice and knew their stuff, but the HR and recruitment team were completely incompetent. I got no feedback or updates after any round and had to chase them myself. Even after the third round, I got an email from a background check company without being told I'd even passed the interviews. After I submitted my background check info, I had to ask for updates again and send my salary slips. Then, more silence for a few days, followed by a generic rejection email. So, three interviews with seven people over a month, plus background checks and submitting salary details, and they couldn't even be bothered to call with feedback. Honestly, avoid this company, especially their HR.

It started with a technical recruiter call, just some basic questions about my current job and the company. Then I had a phone interview with the Engineering Manager where we talked about testing. The third round was also a telephonic with the Engineering Manager, and they gave me a scenario and asked me to write pseudo-code for automation testing. After that, it was an onsite interview with 6 people. That included logical questions about coding for scenarios, writing automation test cases on a laptop, GIT questions, basic coding with unit tests, and discussions with the Engineering Manager about my past experience, the role, and how to improve their current processes.
