      Junior/Mobile Applications Developer Interview

      Sep 13, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Burnaby, BC
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Goopter (Burnaby, BC) in Sep 2019

      Interview

      Unprofessional, un-organized. After applying online, I received an email from the "CEO" asking me about two time slots that I will be available for an interview in their "office" which would take up to 4 hours and I accepted one of the times. Then he emailed after another hour saying if I could do it tomorrow? I said yes no big deal and set it up. Another odd point was the fact that he asked me if I was over 30 or under 30 which was unprofessional to say the least and it was very obvious to me at that moment that he is looking to hire young individuals to take advantage of Government's grants for hiring under 30 employees. I have read their other interview reviews here and I was familiar with the fact that he gives you a screenshot and ask you to make a mockup app using their APIs, no big deal, pretty easy. I went to the interview, arrived on time, and was surprised a bit at first that when they called him, and he saw me after me introducing myself, he paused for a moment as if he has completely forgotten that he asked me to come in less than 24 hours ago! Anyhow, without any spoken words other than hi, he took me to this little cubicle and started the browser and Android studio and without any explanation or introduction whatsoever, sat me down and told me I have 4 hours. I knew what I was supposed to do because I have read it online, but otherwise it was very weird that I got no conversation at all. Anyhow, I started working on the project and quickly got frustrated with the setup. It was a Mac computer, with a window keyboard!!!! I have never owned a Mac and am not comfortable with them, everything took me longer, and to top it off, since this was a Window keyboard, I could not use any shortcuts at all because the Window keyboard does not have the "command" key!!!! so nothing worked. It was painfully frustrating. The whole office was incredibly small, jammed with cubicles and a bunch of young individuals. It again proved my theory since 100% of them looked very young. Moreover, the office was not only fairly messy, it was unbelievably dirty. A college student frat house dirty! In the whole process, the communication was kept to an absolute minimum, non-existent. I am not going to go to the details of the actual app which in its own had numerous fundamental issues. After 4.5 hours he quickly looked at some of my code, very quickly and it again further proved the fact to me that he does not do Android development himself, and has at best a very basic understanding of Android system and Android Studio. Then we proceeded to go next door, in the small entrance of the building next door and sat on those chairs in the entrance/lobby of the small apartment building and that's where the face to face interview quote on quote took place. Again incredibly unprofessional. On top of that, he was looking at his phone for more than 90% percent of the time we were talking, kept going through bullet points of my resume ask weird questions which further proved to me that his Android knowledge in minimal. To make it even more unprofessional, he took a call in the middle of our conversation, stood up and said I have to go talk to my landlord and left the building for 10 minutes and then we wrapped it up. At the end he told me that he will let me know about the next step within a a week. That did not happen, nor he replied to my email regarding the position. I have absolutely nothing nice to say about them.
