First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Quest Software.
AI Manager
The interview was pretty standard, the vibe was chill and not stressful at all. It gave me space to really think and talk about my background without feeling rushed. I felt pretty good about how I handled the chat with the person on the panel.
- Can you discuss your background in Data and AI?
Customer Success Manager
After making it to the final round, I had an on-site interview with two people. The discussion and questions felt disorganized, and it seemed like they were exhausted from interviewing. Up until this point, the communication, coordination, and web interviews were positive. At the end of the on-site interview, the HR Director said they'd make a quick hiring decision and that I could expect an update the following week. However, I didn't receive any update that week, and despite following up with the HR rep twice, I was ghosted. When you reach the final round and invest half your day in an on-site interview, the least Quest could do is inform candidates if they weren't selected. I've read interview reviews with similar negative experiences, and I won't waste any more of my time pursuing opportunities with this company.
- Can you start by telling me about yourself?
Senior Software Engineer
It was a 2 round interview process. The first round was a technical interview focusing on frontend development, covering topics like security, app scaling, frameworks & libraries, and common JavaScript questions. The second round was a behavioral interview assessing problem-solving and communication skills.
- How would you handle a situation where a colleague suggests a different method for solving the same issue?
- Could you describe common security vulnerabilities on the frontend and how to mitigate them?
- What are JavaScript closures and can you provide an example?
Facilities Manager
The interview process was pretty thorough and interesting. It gave me a good look at the company and the job. First, there was an initial screening where we talked about my background. Then, there were more rounds focusing on specific skills and how I'd handle different situations. The panel interviews were good, showing how the team works together. The last interview was with senior people, and I got to understand the company's direction better. It was tough but good, and I'm still really interested in the job.
- What are your career aspirations for the next five years?
