      Senior Software Engineer - Web Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Niantic in Dec 2021

      Interview

      The interview process took about 4 months in total. It was, by far, the longest interview process I've ever had. I would strongly recommend following up with your recruiter 1 week after each interview, or you may be waiting a very long amount of time. I followed up after about 1.5 - 2 weeks each time. Hours after I would follow-up, I was told I made it to the next round. You'll read other interview experiences below indicating that the time to hear a response after the interview exceeded 3 weeks, so be sure to follow up after 1 week, consistently, or you might be forgotten about. The team is lovely to chat with. They are laid back, kind, and genuinely want to help you succeed in the interview. I would have said that my experience was Positive, but 4 months is simply too long to be interviewing. At that point, my situation had changed, so I declined the offer. There were 4 interviews. 1) Coding test in React with a technical lead (60 mins) 2) Panel interview with 3 groups (2.5 hours) 3) Manager / HR interview (30 mins each x 2) 4) Hiring manager interview (30 mins) I thought it was strange that the HR interview was saved for the end. Most places will do that at the beginning. As a result, important items like remote work and Covid policies were not explained until the end.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I can't go into detail because of NDA, but the questions were a combination of coding tests and system design. I normally perform very poorly on coding tests, but I did well on these because of how supportive the staff is.
