      Senior Applications Engineer Interview

      Dec 7, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Crunchyroll (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2016

      Interview

      TL;DR; After a lengthy and time intensive interview process, and a verbal offer, they strung me along for weeks without issuing a formal written offer because they were secretly considering another candidate for the position after offering it to me. They were disrespectful of my time and non-transparent around the status of my offer, making it difficult to evaluate, or even set time lines for other offers that I was considering. Proceed with caution, and don't take them at their word. --------------------- 1 - 30 min Culture/Qualifications Interview with in-house Recruiter 2 - 1 hour Call/Code Challenge with Engineering Manager 3 - 1 hour Call/Code Challenge with Engineer 4 - 6 Hour take-home code challenge 5 - All day Onsite interview Large focus on Data Structures and Algorithms. They love recursive solutions. I passed all the interviews and was extended an offer. In-house recruiter applied pressure for a quick decision, and then became unresponsive to follow up emails and phone calls. On the occasion that I was able to get a response, I was told the delay was due to upper management being away and that the recruiter didn't want to touch base until they were able to get in touch with them, and that a formal written offer would be extended 'tomorrow' once they returned. After another a follow up, I was promised a deadline, which was missed, and had to reach out to another recruiter to get any attention. At this time I learned that the whole time they had been stringing me along because they were interviewing other candidates and had already filled the position.
