I received a brief email saying that I was invited to the Sun West Mortgage Software Engineer Self-Assessment test. I had a applied through LinkedIn and to me Sun West isnt't that well know and I had never heard of Intervue (the asynchronous testing tool), so I made sure to do a quick check online to make sure it wasn't a phishing scam.

Question 1
I haven't taken the test yet. Just sharing my experience so I can read others. So my answer of average for interview difficulty isn't necessarily accurate
Did the online Intervue assignment, and the questions were very similar to what all the other Glassdoor reviews say (HTML parsing). Aced it, but the platform constantly flagged me for mouth movement even though my mouth was NOT moving. I think it was due to my facial hair. Absolute waste of time (90 minutes). Do NOT do online assessments for companies that are sent out automatically.
I was invited to an online assessment. The assessment was very annoying with the “cheat detection”. There are 7 questions, one is required and the rest are optional. After a couple weeks, I got a “not moving forward” email.
I applied online. I interviewed at Sun West Mortgage
Interview
I applied for the Software Engineer position in April 2026. In May, I received an online assessment and completed it shortly afterward. About a month later, in June, I was contacted by the recruiting team and invited to a first-round interview.
