      Senior Software Developer Interview

      13 Oct 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Ascend Learning in Sept 2014

      Interview

      - initial connections was through linked in, the HR personnel contacted me via the linked in message - i took some time to respond back, researched their company meanwhile - called them back a week later, interview set up the next day - first call was with the lead dev for whom i would be reporting, he did a screening with respect to tech questions as well as some basic HR skills, got feedback by EOD about the next steps in the process - next round interview, 3 people, all technical but pretty laid-back,they worked around my schedule as I was working full time 9 to 6, so they took my interview on Skype after work to accommodate my time as well as move quickly - time from first contact (from my side) to acceptance took 2 weeks. the lead dev (first phone call) was really cordial, it was a phone interview and he was very down to earth. no "I know better than you" attitude.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      - The lead dev called me at 6:30 from his home phone, before he put down, he said "don't call back on this number, my wife will answer and you won't like it" .. that was quite unexpected from an otherwise professional interview,
