      Software Development Engineer Interview

      Aug 8, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Syngenta in Jul 2019

      Interview

      It was a bad interview experience with the technical panel. Company needs to monitor these properly to avoid brand damage. There was constant interruption from the interviewer(s) while answering questions and unprecedented doubt on why I am looking for a change and relentlessly not believing it. Candidates need to be trusted and kindly acknowledged for their track record and made to feel comfortable. Sadly, that was not the case in the call. The call lasted for about 45 minutes.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Hardly any technical questions were asked. Most of them sounded like interrogation as to why looking for change. Lengthy questions (usually asked in face to face that need pen,paper and set of assumptions) were asked in a online meeting I doubt the interviewer preparedness and readiness to hear and evaluate candidates with varied experiences and ideas. Only if the panel was interested in accepting the industry exposure of experienced professionals and identifying the value , candidates bring to the table, the company strength would increase by large. I strongly feel my expertise, project experience, responsibilities, self-learning and outlook to work beyond daily responsibilities were NOT put to test but irrelevant questions were given precedence.
