I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at McAfee (London, England)
Interview
If you are a female, dont waste your time interviewing with them. The attitude the interviewer showed is as if females are not for challenging roles. That's how they talk. And if they are looking for modern C++, that should be clarified before first round. Not after wasting someone's time on weekdays for 4 hours.
My first interview was for 1 hour, second one was for 2 hours, then in third interview,interviewer kept asking questions on C++11 asking to code even though I said I dont have working experience in c++11 and above. Even I gave theoretical explanation too. He decided not to hire female and then tried to collect reasons to reject me. Females candidates please don't waste your time. The interviewers show too much attitude. I will never come back here even if I get a chance. Completely lost the respect that I had about this company. And they dont value the problem solving skills at all and No problem solving coding questions. They belive someone's talent is based on knowing a specific version of a language.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
first round basics, all 3 rounds were in C++ , multithreading. No DSA or coding. they dont value your problem solving skills at all.
Had three technical round and one managerial round. Medium level coding questions asked in interview.
If someone having conceptual knowledge in DS Algo then it is easy to clear.
Managerial is mostly on current work related question and basic knowledge on system design.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at McAfee (Indi, Karnataka) in Mar 2021
Interview
Worst Experience Ever. I was interviewed for SDE role in Banglore. The recruiter herself contacted me directly through phone. I saw the glassdoor reviews that the company has a poor HR Team and people had way too many negative experiences but didn't believe it as it is a Standard MNC Company and has good fame. After all the rounds they told I got selected and sent me an offer proposal later. I accepted that day. they took the reference check and pay slips and other details and no call after that. I was waiting for the offer letter from them and since they didn't inform me anything I mailed the HR asking for my Interview Update. They were like "Business internally decided to close the position". If they have a minimum idea how much a job is important to a person and their family they could have just put a mail regarding the same. This is totally useless company and the Team is worst. They say you are selected and propose an offer and lster they decide to close the position. Its really waste of time to get interviewed here. They won't value the candidate or their time. If you are in a serious job hunt its better not to even consider this company in first place. The whole interview process took 1 month and nothing its just a waste.
