      Mobile IOS Apprentice Interview

      Jun 2, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Cambridge, MA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Intrepid Pursuits (Cambridge, MA) in Apr 2019

      Interview

      I applied online as my first step. This was followed up by setting up a phone screening with their HR person. These were the typical "tell me about yourself" kind of questions. Any online resource could help you prepare for that. I was then asked to do a technical screening by sharing a coding environment with a current developer and asked to complete three basic algorithm questions. You can use the language of your choice: I chose Javascript. Finally, they invited me out to Boston, put me in a hotel and paid for my flight for the final interview. I imagine this comes from Accenture's huge amount of capital that they can afford this. The final interview is where things went sour. I actually overheard two of my interviewers say that they never sent me preparatory materials on the subject of the data relations portion of the interview. They never acknowledged this to my face, however. My first in person interview was with a developer, but it was clear she hadn't ever done an interview before. I wasn't sure that the interview was really starting because she just started drawing on the white board with a barely legible marker. She was reading off of a piece of paper for the problems that seemingly someone else had printed off and used a few times before. I was so thrown and confused as to what she was asking, and I know that definitely showed in my answers. No time for questions before the second interviewer was called. The first interviewer then asked if she could sit in on the second interview just to see how they were to be done (???). The second interview also felt pretty high pressure. This one started with a problem that took the whole time, with questions at the end. It wasn't a bad interview, but it didn't feel like the interviewers necessarily wanted to be there. The final interview was behavioral with no technical aspect to it. Just more basic stuff, but still conducted by a current developer. Overall, pretty good experience up until the final interview, in which they seemed unprepared and a bit uninterested since they have so many apprentices coming through every few months. They didn't follow up with me after a week as they said they would, so I had to email them to finally get an email back with their decision. Probably a good job experience, but they don't have a huge need for people, so they can afford to drop the ball in a lot of ways and still be fine.
