      Software Engineer Interview

      Aug 20, 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Seattle, WA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vulcan (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2019

      Interview

      I applied online, and within a day I heard back from a recruiter, arranging a phone call for the following day, where I learned about the organization and the position and shared my background and reasons for seeking the role. After that I was invited to do a video phone interview with the hiring manager, where we dived into depth on the job, the project and what I could contribute to it (including my knowledge and skill level). A few days later the recruiter checked in, and invited to me the in-person interview. The in-person was 4 hours including a lunch break, where I met with 4 sets of people, all of whom were very kind and the conversations were illuminating. There were some technical questions, including a pair programming exercise. This was an incredibly smooth and positive interview process.

      Question 1

      Now that you know more about the various aspects of the project, where would you best contribute?

      I applied online. I interviewed at Vulcan (Seattle, WA) in May 2017

      Interview

      Initial Phone screen was a recruiter who didn't seem to know very much about technology or software. She seemed very interested in promoting Paul Allen rather than talking about the position itself.
