      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Nov 18, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AppDynamics (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      I had a brief chat with the recruiter about the role and the interview process. The recruiter gave me a clear idea about the role,expectation and the interview process. Following this, I took up two telephonic interviews. Both were technical. Questions were asked from a variety of topics including Problem Solving, Algorithms, Java, and Databases. The questions themselves were not very difficult but one should have good understanding of these topics. Based on the feedback from the telephonic interview, I was asked to attend onsite interview. There were four technical onsite interviews. Each one of the interviews was different from that of other.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Some of the topics that were tested in the interview were as follow: 1.Data Structures and algorithms. 2. Java/J.2.E.E. questions. 3. How to scale applications and how to identify bottlenecks and trouble shoot them. 4. Questions related to Java performance tuning, J.V.M. Architecture and garbage collection. 5. White board problem solving.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at AppDynamics in Apr 2021

      Interview

      Very disappointing. Hacker rank then coderpad then coderpad and so on till the time you fail it. Its all waste of time they have rejection policy so not worth opting for it and wasting our time

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      First hacker rank code then 2 round again coderpad 3rd round again coderpad.. They will ask some random questions formed by themselves and even if you provide approach and code it. They are not going to select because they dont want to see your thoughtprocess.Its all waste of time
