      Interview

      - The first contact we talked in general about experiences and skills. - The second contact, this time with the manager and HR, we talked about my professional history, my ambitions, motivation to accept new challenges and I also had the opportunity to ask my questions about the company. - The third contact was with the technical team to talk about cloud technologies, cicd, iac, configuration manager, best practices ... - The fourth contact was with the Head, we reviewed some of the topics previously discussed, we talked a little more about my experiences in other projects and I was also able to ask more questions about the company. The fifth contact was with the HR team to present the offer letter. The whole process took approximately 30 days, from the first contact to the offer.

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at OutSystems in Nov 2025

      Interview

      I went through 3 rounds of interviews. The first round was a behavioral interview that also included a coding assessment. The second round was a take-home project that took me about 20 hours to complete. The final round was me presenting the code I wrote, which I also spent a lot of time preparing. It felt like a lot of work to get an automated rejection e-mail over a week later.

      Lead Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at OutSystems in Mar 2025

      Interview

      The interview process was very straightforward. I applied for the position through LinkedIn, and two weeks later, I was contacted by a member of OutSystem's recruiting team for an initial interview. The first interview was a non-technical "getting to know you" kind of discussion. They asked about my background and college history. The recruiter was very kind. After the first interview, I was then scheduled to meet with the hiring manager. This was a pretty standard discussion about my job history and experience. Next was a technical interview with one of their "Lead Software Engineers." In this interview, I went through two "DSA" style questions using a shared session via HackerRank. The interviewer was very kind and patient. The final interview was with an "architect" in which we discussed some application architecture. This was by far the longest interview, but it was an enjoyable conversation.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Describe a project that you worked on that didn't work out so well.
