      Remote Senior Backend Engineer Interview

      Jul 27, 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Factorial

      Interview

      The interview process even tho I marked as difficult, the more appropriate term would be unreasonable. Recruiter screen - Standard questions HM round + Director - Expect resume based scenario questions After this they give you a choice to either pick from your github a project you already did or do a take home test. I chose take home test as I didn't have any latest public github projects. The assignment was complex and massive that it'll take few months for a team to build it idk what they mean they expect someone to code it in a week and send it to them. Even system design round for this problem is difficult to wrap up in an hour so the fact that they expected me to code it in a weekend and send it over made me realise technically they may not know what they're doing
