      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      May 8, 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Orca Security in Apr 2023

      Interview

      I got reached out by a third-party recruiting company which acted as a mediator in the process. 1. Take-Home task to implement a simple API service. 3-8 hours depending on how isolated you implement the running environment as they do not provide any information about the runtime. Got positive feedback from 3p recruiter to move forward 2. 2 hours Coding/System design. Simple coding task, average system design for a chat system which assumes a lot about your familiarity with a particular web stack. Top-down communication, interviewers are not very open or engaging to ask questions or discuss proposed solutions. Solved both tasks well I guess as I got invited to the next round. 3. Interview with Hiring Manager and Team Lead. Complete opposite of interview #2 - openminded communication, discussed the project and the role. Waiting for over three weeks, multiple unanswered followups from my side. Think I'm ghosted.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Orca Security in Sep 2024

      Interview

      3 technical interviews. First interview: general questions and a coding question (kudos for asking an actual question and not leetcode style) Second interview: system design Third interview: explain a feature you worked on and how you handled scale Every interview was with 2 different people. Everyone was super nice and made me feel relaxed. The questions were challenging but really fair

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Apr 9, 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tel Aviv-Yafo
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Orca Security (Tel Aviv-Yafo)

      Interview

      I was invited to do an online test from some of third-party online tests providers. It was about 1.5 hours test. I did the test successfully, the result provided immediately by the provider to the applicant and sent to the company. Can you imagine my face when I received a mail from the company that I fail the test. Since I had known the result of the test, I demanded an explanation from the company. After two weeks I got a letter that there must be some mistake and I was invited to continue with the recruitment process. I declined the opportunity.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The test had 2 parts: 1. A basic algorithm task to find number of strings 2. To implement Rest API, which is a pretty trivial task. The challenge was to use uncommon methods for the common tasks.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with us regarding the application process. Our online test is actually scheduled for a duration of up to 1 hour, not 1.5 hours. It appears there may have been a mix-up or misunderstanding with your review, possibly with a different company's process. But in any case, please know that we have taken your feedback and are committed to improving our processes to prevent such occurrences in the future. We value every candidate's time and effort and deeply regret any negative experience. Thank you once again for sharing your concerns, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
