Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at ProDIGIQ.
Software Engineer
This was probably the most confusing and unprofessional interview I've ever had. The CEO mentioned my facial expression seemed off and even threatened to end the interview. He also stated he'd reviewed my resume and wasn't interested in hearing about my past work, but instead wanted to know about my "tenacity and grit". The company was described as sink or swim. I'd advise against this one if you don't want to be treated very unprofessionally. I'm still puzzled by the lack of professionalism he showed during this initial screening.
- Can you share an example that demonstrates your tenacity and grit?
Software Engineer
The CEO reached out to me on LinkedIn. We had a phone call where he told me about the company. Then, I had a phone call with the CTO. Both conversations were really good and professional. After that, I was scheduled for an in-person interview.
- Can you discuss your previous work experience?
- What qualities do you value in an employer?
Software Engineer Intern
Since travel was restricted due to COVID-19, all interviews were online. It started with a phone screen from HR, who talked about ProDIGIQ's family-like culture, which I really liked because I believe collaboration is key for a growing company. Then, there were two technical interviews. The first was a coding challenge where I could use any language, and I made sure to discuss edge cases and my thought process. The second technical interview required coding in Ruby, which I was notified of when selected for the round. I had a week to prepare but started learning Ruby basics early. The challenge was moderately difficult, testing Ruby fundamentals, and I coded in a shared IDE, which helped me fix errors and get a perfect result. After that, I had an hour-long interview with two technical interviewers and the President. They were friendly, answered my questions about the role, and reinforced the company's supportive culture. It was an honest chat that went a bit over an hour, and I was happy to be close to working with them. Following that, the President called me separately to learn more about me and how I'd fit their culture, emphasizing their desire for long-term employees, which aligns with my goals. We had a great conversation, and I got an offer the next day, which I accepted.
- How willing are you to be trained and coached?
- Can you share an example of a mistake you made and how you corrected it?
