      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      May 17, 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Olathe, KS
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Garmin (Olathe, KS) in May 2021

      Interview

      I interviewed at Kansas, Olathe office in early May 2021. There were 3 rounds, 1. Recruiter call to get more details about my background, availability, earliest joining date etc. A few behavioral questions. 2. Mix round with Team lead and Senior Software engineer - 10 min introduction, 15 min for 2-3 behavioral questions, 30 min coding on coderpad, 5 min for candidate questions (I highly recommend not to elaborate much on behavioral questions, as it will take time from the 30 min allocated for coding. Also, have a couple of good questions to ask them.) Coding problem was easy. They judge the approach and not just outcome alone (you 'have to' get the right solution as the coding challenge is easy). ** After this I told they that I have a couple of other offers and if we can expedite the remaining process (last round). 3. Technical interview with another 2 team leads - 15 min discussion on previous experience, projects etc 40 min coding challenge on coderpad 5 min for candidate questions (Apparently, I showed a lot of promise on my previous coding challenge, so for me, they eliminated coding challenge for the 3rd interview and kept discussing my projects, technical challenges and how I solved them, posed my some challenges and asked how I would solve them etc.) I did well on the last interview as well and I had positive interactions with all the team members. However, one of the companies I got offer from replied back and decided to match my asking package. So I accept that offer and did not wait for Garmin response. My only suggestion for them would be to move faster in case of the candidates that they want to move forward with. But overall, a very positive experience.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Sep 24, 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Garmin

      Interview

      I was applying to one of their Senior Software Engineer openings in the Boulder location. I had gone through a round of interviews. The questions were not bad, and the interviewers were pleasant. My main concern is that the HR/Recruitment is only opening this position for candidate lead farming! I had asked multiple times for an understanding on the my current status to be given radio silence. 1 month later, the job opening is reposted on linkedIn. With over hundreds of qualified candidates, you're telling me you can't find one qualified candidate. Don't waste multiple hours!!

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Garmin in Jul 2024

      Interview

      I had an hour-long interview with a recruiter who came across as unprofessional and rude. The recruiter asked me to rate my skills on various topics, which took about 20-30 minutes. When she inquired about my expected salary, I asked for the salary range, which seemed to annoy her. Her demeanor changed, and she immediately lost interest.

      Sr. Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 26, 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Kansas City, MO
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Garmin (Kansas City, MO) in Jul 2022

      Interview

      I initially interviewed with the Technical Recruiter, but I was declined before being able to interview with the actual hiring manager or interview with the technical team members. I thought the interview with the recruiter went really well so I was actually shocked when I wasn't able to proceed with the interview process. My guess is that it had to do with my race, based on some of the questions I was asked.
