First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at SkySlope.
Data Analyst
The interview process started with a recruiter call and then a technical screen. They asked behavioral and technical questions.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- Can you tell me about your previous role?
- What projects were you involved in during your last position?
Customer Support Agent
I had a phone call with the customer support supervisor and it went really well. The same day, they set up another phone call with the customer support managers. This was a panel interview with two managers. I practiced for it. It felt like a waste of time, but I guess I dodged a bullet with this company because of their bad reviews.
- Tell me what you know about SkySlope.
Software Engineer
I interviewed at this company twice and got to the last round both times but had no offer. Process was exact same both times: (1) phone screen (2) manager interview (3) panel interview - 45 min design a link shortener from scratch + 45min work historical drilldown. Personally, I think they are hiring for devops/integration engineers not full-stack engineers. They kept asking me about server side optimizations and cluster networks and things I've never dealt with once in the last 15 years of full-stack software development. I have nothing against the company but I just don't get why their questions were so irrelevant to full-stack. It's like you're applying for a house electrician job and of the 1000s of relevant issues they could have asked you they instead ask you about how to config a power plant that delivers electricity to the house.
- Can you design a link shortener application?
- What is a project you are most proud of?
Customer Support Representative
The interview was with the customer support lead tech. It seemed like they were new to interviewing. They asked basic questions, and there was also a typing test and a memory test. A phone screening happened first. Many of the questions from the phone screening were asked again during the 1-on-1, which was held at the SkySlope office.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- Can you tell me about a mistake you made and what you'd do differently?
- How do you define high standards?
