      Technical Designer Interview

      Jun 27, 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rockstar Games

      Interview

      Pretty standard. Kicked them a resume, got a design test, then a phone interview. The phone interview was relatively quick, just running down the resume and making sure I wasn't a complete fraud essentially. After that was an on-site interview, which had a design and a tech section on a whiteboard. Also pretty standard. The whole thing lasted maybe three hours.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      All the technical stuff was psuedocode, and most of the problems were gameplay related, programming interactions that pretty directly impacted gameplay.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at Rockstar Games

      All designers are expected to be programmers as well. After a few phone calls, I had to take a programming test. You can choose a language for it. Received some immediate feedback on the test but never received feedback overall after being rejected.

      Programming test with various prompts--3 coding prompts and 2 design prompts.
