First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Wild Alaskan.
Software Engineer
The interview process included an initial phone screen, followed by a brief technical interview with the Engineering Manager that lasted about 30 minutes. After that, there was a take-home test which was estimated to take 4-6 hours. I'm not sure what happens next since I didn't advance. When I got my rejection, I asked for feedback on the take-home project, but I was disappointed not to receive any specific feedback about it. I was expecting some comments on why my project didn't meet their standards, and maybe some ideas on how to improve it, especially after spending 4-6 hours on it.
- In Javascript, can you explain the difference between a Promise and a Closure?
- What are the three A's referred to when discussing test writing?
Senior Software Engineer
The interview was pretty simple. Started with HR, then a 30-minute chat with a technical lead, and finished with a 4-hour take-home assignment.
- Can you discuss your past experience and the technologies you've used?
- What's your familiarity with the tech stack we use here?
Front End Developer
I spoke with HR and the engineering manager. Then I got a take-home assignment, but after I submitted it, they ghosted me for three weeks. The HR rep then tried to schedule a call, but they never called and didn't reply to my follow-ups. Don't bother with this company.
- Tell me about your framework and experience.
Creative Operations Manager
I was emailed for a first interview, got the invite about 2 weeks later and they never showed up to the Zoom meeting. I followed up many times with no response to reschedule. I was really excited to interview for the job and am highly qualified. It was weird and disappointing to be ghosted by a company with such good reviews.
