      Software Engineer II Interview

      Jul 16, 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Tripadvisor

      Interview

      The interview process was alright but I was let down by the internal recruiter who simply wasted my time. The first interview is all high-level tell us about yourself, salary, etc. The second interview is a technical screen where you have to describe your relevant software experience and then you work through a problem on coderpad. The question was easy, implement the itoa function. Then, because there was more time, I was asked to review some code. I was then sent a rejection email from the no-reply address after not getting a response from the recruiter for several days. I asked for feedback and surprisingly I got it. It turns out that my lack of front-end experience was a deal breaker for them, despite the recruiter telling me directly in the first interview that this was totally fine and we should proceed. I guess the recruiter think it’s OK to waste people’s time and effort like this. Btw the salary range I was given for this position was 120k-140k.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Implement itoa, review code, talk about what you did on previous projects and describe it from a technical perspective.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      Recusada em menos de 24 horas, sem qualquer feedback. O email era no-reply, sem ninguém dos recursos humanos atribuído. O processo foi extremamente impessoal e claramente avaliado por Inteligência Artificial, sem consideração humana.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tripadvisor in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Had an HR interview, then a tech interview. Although the role focused on frontend, the technical interview was heavily backend-oriented, which felt unexpected and misaligned with the job description and expectations.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Data structures, object oriented concepts, and SQL.
