      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Sep 15, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SmartThings

      Interview

      A HR recruiter called me and scheduled a video call with Hiring manager. Had a 30 min meeting with the Hiring Manager. After few days received an email from HR that they are not interested further

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Nothing that stands out. Asked about my experience etc. The Hiring Manager was more interested in hiring a programmer who has worked in technologies that they use, rather than a candidate with strong CS fundamentals and Engineering background. Just asked if I am familiar with few of the latest technologies throwing around some buzzwords. There was no attempt made to have an intellectual conversation about why one approach is better than other.

      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at SmartThings (Minneapolis, MN) in Apr 2024

      Interview

      All interviews were conveniently scheduled by me. For each step, SmartThings sent me a link where I could chose my interview time. I had a choice of several times on several days. I was contacted 2 days after submitting my application to start the process. 1. 30-minute phone screen with recruiter, mostly confirming my resume and describing the position 2. 30-minute Zoom interview with team manager, mostly casual conversation about my background, what the team does 3. 90-minute Zoom technical interview with 3 team members, utilized online IDE with all files preloaded, single question, all Java 4. 1-hour onsite interview with 3 team members, half sharing technical background, half behavioral questions 5. 30-minute Zoom interview with Director of Engineering, mostly the Director telling me about the company I received offer 35 days after submitting my application.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Typical behavioral interviewing questions, programming question that involved data structures. They gave me a PDF beforehand with very clear overview of interview. Because SmartThings has employees in Korea and China, they asked me about my background working with employees in different work cultures.
