      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Aug 18, 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth

      Interview

      Submitted application online and sent resume through internal contact for open position. Had a phone interview with technical recruiter and did well enough to get a homework assignment. Was given program to write with qualifications that it take less than a given number of seconds to run and take less than a given amount of memory. Was allowed to take as much time as needed and to write this and had a choice of any language. Once done, it was sent in to be reviewed. Recruiter passes it off to technical staff to have them review it, compile it (if necessary), and run it. After 3 days, received brief statement from recruiter that the technical staff said it did not resolve the problem. I know it worked, and emailed back for feedback on what they said did not work stating that additional feedback would assist to become a better programmer. Did not receive ANY response.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Program: Write a program that takes any string of characters (up to 25 characters) and calculates all permutations then returns the position of this string in the alphabetized permutations list.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Apr 10, 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Boston, MA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at athenahealth (Boston, MA) in Apr 2026

      Interview

      I interviewed with one of the API-focused teams for a 30-minute hiring manager round. The interview began with questions about my applications to other teams, which had already been discussed with HR, and the mention that candidates may be redirected to other teams felt discouraging before the technical discussion even started. During the discussion, the interviewer appeared dismissive and showed limited interest in understanding the context behind technical decisions (for example, quickly judging latency as “very high” without exploring system constraints). Overall, the interaction felt somewhat one-sided and not very candidate-friendly.
