      Software Engineer Interview

      2 Nov 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Prosper.com (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2021

      Interview

      Total 5 rounds. 2 coding, 1 System design, 1 SQL and API design, Manager round. When discussion about numbers came in. The recruiter was a bully. She didn't even bother to congratulate on the offer and was rude to suggest that “I shouldn’t consider accepting the offer “ . Accepting an offer involves making both parties happy. According to her, negotiation means, Candidate has to give up on whereas the company can remain stubborn. It’s not a fair play when both parties involved are not meeting in the middle ground.

      San Francisco, CA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Prosper.com (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2017

      Interview

      One telephonic technical interview 1 hour long, asked 2-3 coding q and a bunch of java core questions like garbage collection, type of exceptions, string manipulation question, they love questions related to the binary search tree. After 3-4 days I got a call for an onsite interview, 5 rounds 45 min each. The interview was pretty intense. In each round, at least 3-4 coding questions and REST APIs. A couple of SQL queries, make sure to prepare for REST APIs and SQL, it won't be written in the job description but this is really important for them. I did not find office culture very attractive but the location is great.

      Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Prosper.com in Feb 2017

      Interview

      Their recruiter is very unprofessional. Here is my experience: 1. Cancel Phone screening 5 minutes in advance: After I submitted application, one recruiter sent an online question (hacker rank) to me. I passed and was contacted by the recruiter and scheduled an phone screening. On the day of phone screening, the recruiter called me 5 minutes before the scheduled time, told me that the phone screen is canceled. Then, I received an email asking me to complete another online test. But I was never given link for this new online test. 2. Phone interview without any prior scheduling: A couple days later, I received an unexpected call and it is phone screening, which I was not given any notice of. I managed to complete it gracefully. 3. Onsite interview canceled when you want to confirm the schedule with them: Another couple days later, the same recruiter approached me and asked whether I can come for onsite interview on a specific day. I said yes and the recruiter said great she would get back to me very soon, which never happen. Two days before the tentative interview date, I emailed the recruiter to confirm the onsite interview schedule. 10 Minutes later I received the rejection email.
