ING QA Engineer interview questions

Smooth process, very dynamic with pertinent questions and they help you when you are stuck. I was pretty surprised about the direction and found it a pleasant interview overall. In general they are following they agenda but also take regards on you, you experience, what you can do ho you can learn and adapt.

Horrible Experience! The job AD via LinkedIn asked for a 2yrs experience, including in-house frameworks. The actual face to face interview included a QA team lead and a Dev team lead, focused EXCLUSIVELY on Java despite advertising for any experience in any programming language, and one of their first questions was about Design Patterns, building UP from there. The actual QA questions were basic, and I mean basic (how would you write up a Bug/Incident report). Software questions were not aimed at finding a QA Automation Engineer, but rather a senior developer to work on their automation framework. Either it was poorly described (incorrect job description and HR details), either they are testing the waters, hoping to land a senior/expert and pay them as a regular automation QA engineer. Either way, it was a terrible waste of time, the interview itself was scripted and not an open discussion at all. When they also mentioned their regular overtime (fun with pizza, on weekends, they said), that's when all my alarm bells when up and decided this was a no-go. Overall, horrible experience for me. They seem to have liked my interview, but I refused straight away to discuss further, before we even had a chance to talk about pay. After discussing with several friends in the same line of business, this pattern of interviewing has been happening for over a year, hoping to land them a senior developer accepting lower pay. Terrible!
