      Android Engineer Interview

      Oct 9, 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Airbnb (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Initial communication is with the recruiter. Then you get a take home test, if that goes well you move to phone screen then onsite. The take home test is a 90 minutes test that you need to submit over hacker rank. In this case, it was an incomplete app that needed certain features to be added. However, the app didn’t build initially which cost me a ton of time to try and build. Keep in mind that they give you a test app and if it builds, then the actual real test app that’s incomplete should build too. However, this wasn’t the case, so I spent the first half of the 90 minutes trying to figure out how to fix the gradle issues I was getting. I followed steps from Stackoverflow of someone who had a similar issue and solved it. However, it didn’t fix the issue. I ended up creating a project from scratch and copying over files one by one. By the time I was done, I barely had time to do 1 feature. They didn’t move forward, and I expressed to them these issues. However, I don’t think they cared.
