      Software Design Engineer Interview

      Apr 24, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Alaska Airlines

      Interview

      1st - phone screen with the lead technical recruiter, went great 2nd - one week later, on site interview loop - 30 minutes with lead technical recruiter - 30 minutes with senior developer (behavior and technical) - 2 hours with 3 developers mob programming - 30 minutes with hiring manager Overall the entire day was great. I got along with everyone and it was a great experience. 3rd - four days after loop, 60 minutes - technical phone screen with the Director of Engineering. Solved the problem, when looking at it afterwards, would have refactored it and solved it differently. 4th - zero contact from POO recruiters despite repeated emails of inquiry on next steps. FINALLY I get an email, several weeks later from a software engineering manager that I had never met, inviting me to do a take home coding challenge. I completed the challenge in one week. I finally received a rejection after 8 weeks of no responses to any emails, saying they decided to go with someone with more experience. Super unprofessional behavior by the entire recruiting team.
