      Software Developer Interview

      29 Aug 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at First Databank in Aug 2019

      Interview

      Referred by a local head-hunter. They were very diligent including offering potential interview questions, of which I fully researched beforehand. No problem with the firm, they did a nice job of introduction to the company.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Too bad: Questions read off a web site to ask C# developers (Google such before you phone interview (Indianapolis) with these clowns). No desire to find out true skills. For example, if you don't know what "boxing" means, you are unqualified. Doesn't matter if you've "boxed/unboxed" a zillion times (which you/I have, we just don't know the trick question/terminology), if you don't "read off" the "answer", you clearly don't know C#, in their feeble minds. That tells me the person(s) asking the question are not qualified to make decisions on candidates. And it tells me this company (at least with this particular organization) is not interested in solving its customers problems. They are too hung up on non-sense, instead of a willingness in solving problems and delivering value to their customers. In my case, and perhaps others, I am an extremely focused developer on delivering value to my customers. I actually get a kick out of it, and drives the very being of why I do what I do.

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at First Databank (Indianapolis, IN) in Oct 2019

      Interview

      One hour phone screen with 4 interviewers. Two hour interview with panel of 3. Mostly technical questions and some personality questions. First they asked me to rate my technical ability across different topics. Then they asked a lot of questions on topics where I rated myself high. They didn't ask many questions where I rated myself as weak. They gave written requirements of a software system, and asked me to draw the database diagram on the whiteboard. Live coding assessment during the interview.
