      Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 14, 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Madrid
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cobee (Madrid) in Jun 2023

      Interview

      Soemone from Cobee HR was in touch with me about a position to be based in the UK. I did three interviews. 1st - 30 min informal chat with HR, 2nd - 45 min chat with a Hiring Manager 3rd - 1h to do a code review and 3 problem solving exercises. In the second interview I openly said I did not have experience about DDD and Hexagonal Architecture. They shared a repo with me to do a code review and see together in a third round my findings. I proposed to use typeORM and the Hiring Manager kept me asking how to do without typeORM. If it was possible to create a kind of custom class to consume any kind of DB. In the begining I did not even think he was talking about any kind of DDD and/or Hexagonal Architecture. Unfortunately, I wasted my time as I was being questioned about something that I had never done and I let him know in the previous round. So, how could be that possible? Well, my guess is probably the Company did a kind of market research to see how the UK market was or he just did not listen to me. Apart from that, the guy looked a bit stressed, he was friendly in the second interview but in the third one, his manners were not good, his questions were a bit out of context. It was supposed to be a code review based on a Express repo with a lot of things to fix. The most important ones about the quality code. I mean, it was not meant to re-architect the project. At least the README instructions did not say anything about. Well, I guess ..it is life, and this is the kind of Company that you do not want to work for unless you don´t have any other thing better or you are unemployed. At the end of the day, it is a Spanish Company and it looks like these things will never change. The manners and the arrogant attitude of some Managers are completely different to the UK Companies. It is my own experience and I have been on both sides. At the end of the day, I hope this review is useful to the Company and they can address these issues. Rudeness and lack of transparency in these processes should not be acceptable.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A repo shared a few days before of the interview to be reviewed in order to comment your findings on how to improve the quality. Sadly a Hiring Manager who did not listen and kept asking about DDD and Hexagonal Architecture. It was a bit surprising the interview was driven by the Hiring Manager and a "Tech Lead" who did not know what was Map in JS. They use NodeJS with TS
