      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      17 Sept 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Sunnyvale, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Equinix (Sunnyvale, CA) in Jul 2015

      Interview

      This interview was a very surreal experience - the technical interview itself was alright. My primary contact during the interview was very distracted during the process, which as an interviewer myself I can understand. However, things started to get strange when we started discussing company culture. They didn't say it explicitly, but the expectation was that you are supposed to call out your coworkers for their mistakes and backstab your coworkers if it helps to advance your own position. I got pretty weirded out by this and the interviewers definitely picked up on it. I'm glad that they were upfront about this in the interview. I guess they're looking for people who are actively seeking toxic work environments. Sorry, but that's not my cup of tea.

      Interview

      Technical Interview - asked spring boot and java fundamentals. Quite niche in their nature. Some were fair others were too niche. Along with describing technical architecture which was definitely relevant and fair part of the interview.

      Ghosted by recruiter despite getting positive feedback from HM. Radio silence since last 10 days. Terrible experience. Interviews are pretty standard - OOPS concepts, JAVA concurrency, Networking concepts, System Design
