ecobee Interview Questions

First, phone screening with HR. Next, an on-site pair programming exercise with 2 senior engineers. I was asked to bring in a project I've worked on and is familiar with. We added a new feature. After the pair programming, I met with 2 manager level folks.

I had completed a prescreening call and on the spot was invited to a second interview and requested to complete a case study since other candidates were already ahead of me. I had taken my entire weekend just to prepare for this case study which was a presentation. I had worked several, several hours on this. My presentation was extremely comprehensive. Once I had presented my case study, I was told that I would be contacted by the end of the same week, if not early next week with their final decision. I never heard back and was completely ghosted. I would expect a company like ecobee to be respectful of their candidates and the time they give to a company. A simple follow up mentioning I had not been hired would’ve been appreciated. However, to have a candidate move to a final round, present and simply not follow up and ghost is entirely disrespectful and raises red flags.

It was fairly easy to navigate their process, and HR was quite proactive about scheduling, next rounds and steps, etc. Overall a positive experience, and despite not qualifying will consider participating again if the opportunity arises.

SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL I applied for the above position and after reviewing application they invited me for the phone interview. On the day of phone interview, I received the call from the same person who wrote emails earlier. The very first thing he tells me is, "Hi there, Sorry to tell you that there has been some changes to the Job's Requirements and we'll have to reschedule the call till next time". And I asked him, "What kind of changes, can you please tell me more", and he said he'll write email in detail and that he will have to end call now. Now after two days of waiting, I never received any email. So I wrote email for the follow up and this as well never received any response. And after probably couple of months, I received email that sorry about all that but there were some change and because of that they couldn't move my application further. SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL, IF YOU CAN FIND A COMPANY WHO CARES ABOUT PEOPLE AND ARE SOME WHAT PROFESSIONAL!!

It was a simple interview with a focus on my resume and experiences in coding/previous work. The interview went really well but the position required more experience than I had at the time.

First was a call with HR, followed by a technical interview with pair programming using two computers where I brought in an app/project I had made myself. We added testing to the app as that was similar to what the role would be like.

I was contacted by email to provide them with availability for a phone interview and summited that through a website they provided. A follow up email confirmed a date and time for a phone interview with an HR person. I was asked basic questions regarding my experience and reviewed what they were looking for and about the company.
