      Software Engineer Interview

      Jan 16, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Saint Louis, MO
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at World Wide Technology (Saint Louis, MO) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I was first contacted by an Asynchrony recruiter and given a quick phone screening. We discussed my background and the culture of the company and what I was looking for in a company - standard questions, nothing really technical. The next step was filling out a technical skills sheet and you may be asked to submit some sample code. I didn't have to submit sample code but a couple of my colleagues did. After a week or so I was invited to an onsite interview and given a tour of the building. The first part of the interview will typically be a discussion with peers of similar background and skill sets. There were some technical questions, but it's more of an interview to find out if you're a good fit. As for the technical questions, if it's on your resume be prepared to talk about it. You won't be quizzed on everything and it won't be technical trivia questions but more focused on finding out if you know about what you claim to know and can communicate that effectively (open-ended questions like "What have you done in Angular?", "How have you used JavaScript?"). After an hour or so I was paired with another developer for a pair-programming exercise geared towards your technical background. This will take approximately an hour. You may or may not finish the exercise. My impression was that they were looking for someone who would be a good fit for pair programming because that's how software is developed here. Don't sweat it if you stumble a bit here and there. You mostly need to be able to communicate effectively and demonstrate that you can work with your partner and share your thoughts on how to approach solving the task at hand. The tasks are not that difficult and mostly designed to let you show how you tackle things. Yeah, if you say you can do ASP.NET MVC and don't know how to use a controller class then you'll have problems, but be confident in your abilities and have fun. It should be an enjoyable experience. After it's all done you should get feedback within a week if not sooner as to whether you'll get an offer or not.

      The interview lasted about 20 minutes. It started with some standard questions, such as describing the funniest situation from my past experience and discussing my salary expectations. The rest of the time was spent in a conversation about my previous life and work experiences.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at World Wide Technology (Saint Louis, MO) in Jan 2022

      Interview

      After sending in my application, I was sent a questionnaire regarding my skills in software, both generally and specifically to the tech stack I applied for. There was then an initial screening with a recruiter, probably only about 20-30 minutes. I was then sent a take-home coding challenge, which was not incredibly challenging, but gave me the chance to show my problem solving skills. Once reviewed, I was asked to give some dates for a virtual on-site, where there would be three interviews: technical, pair programming, and values. They offered to split those over two days, which I did. The technical interview was for asking more general questions about my software background, technologies I've worked with, etc. They also told me some about their stack, and development philosophies, and we got to dialog about that some. The pair-programming interview was very enjoyable. This was very code-centric, and allowed me to problem solve in front of a senior engineer. It was honestly a great learning experience too. It seemed less about specific knowledge and more about communication. The values interview was standard; lots of "tell me about a time" questions. Both of the interviewers were incredible kind and very laid back. Honestly, this goes for every interview, but I think it matters the most for this one. It only took a day or two for the offer to come in after the last interview. Overall, I thought this experience was really great. I'd been interviewing with many startups for a couple of months, and it was refreshing to have a more standard interview process.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at World Wide Technology (Saint Louis, MO) in Dec 2019

      Interview

      Interview at St. Louis, MO. Started with a HR screening interview, followed by a code challenge. Finished the code challenge and sent back for review. After review, invited for onsite interview. It took around 3 hours. First hour was moreover introducing about their benefits and walk through the offices. I like about the benefit summary however I didn't like the tour to their building because I made my time available for the interview from my work schedule and without making any decision on my candidature they are taking me to the tour which I believe is a waste of time. Second hour was a technical interview asking about the previous projects and experience. Then gave an algorithm coding challenge to validate a string. I answered almost all the questions including the algorithm coding challenge. Third hour was a pair programming and they have a set of unit test cases tied to some functionalities. I was able to progress with the pair programming. I would say almost 90% unit test cases I was able to complete. My pair programmer was also having a good impression. Overall the interview seems easy however after so many followups I got a response from HR saying they are not going to proceed with my candidature for the specified position and would like to proceed for another open position based on my skill. After one more follow up I got a response saying the position is no more active. The usual HR game with Job seekers. At last a message saying 'Wish you good luck in your search' I see few other interview reviews with same experience and same happened to me. Completely waste of time doing the coding challenge, attending onsite interview, a wasteful tour, pair programming. Please make a process for interview which is out of box.

      Thanks and sorry if we dropped the ball here. If a candidate isn't a fit (or we already have someone selected) for a specific position, we may try and see where else they could be a fit. We feel the tour of our facility is important in respect to transparency for candidates. I'm sorry you didn't find it useful. Best of luck to you and thank you again.
