Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Vodafone.
Software Developer
Applied online, then did an online HireVue which had some logic questions and short video questions about my motivations and previous experience. If I passed that, the next stage was an in-person assessment centre with multiple stages. We had a group task and some data to analyse, then an individual behavioural interview, and another individual presentation with some preparation time. Overall vibe was positive, I have enjoyed the in-person assessment day, and left me with positive perception of Vodafone.
- Why do you want to work at Vodafone?
Senior Software Engineer
This senior developer interview for a Java and AWS role requires knowledge on 5 core topics: Java Design Patterns, Microservices Architecture, AWS EC2, Docker & Kubernetes, and CI/CD Pipelines.
- Questions about AWS, Java, and Software Architecture.
Software Engineer
The interview process started with a recruiter call where they asked general questions like why I was leaving my current job. This was followed by some basic technical questions, such as 'What is the SOLID principle?'. The second round involved a live coding test in the first half, focusing on writing tests and REST APIs. The second half of this round was dedicated to system design, where I had to discuss a system I had previously worked on.
- Can you tell me why you are looking to leave your current job?
- Could you explain the SOLID principle?
- What is Test-Driven Development (TDD)?
