      Junior Devops Engineer Interview

      13 Feb 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at RiverSafe (London, England) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      The Interview process was broke into several steps. - First of all, they asked me to do a tech interview with someone from the tech department, pretty much just to check to which technologies I was familiar with, something that took no longer than 10 minutes. - A couple of weeks later (no kidding, it took a while for them to contact me) they asked me to do a DevOps project: To deploy a "hello world" cloud application using a CD/CI tool of my choice. Extra points if I manage to do it using containers, making it multi-platform, scripting it, making it as professional as possible, which I did. I tried to do everything they asked me for, fill up all the details, deliver a complete project. - A coulpe of weeks later (2 months after the first contact to be exact), they asked me to do a face to face interview with the CEO and Customer Success manager in their headquarters. The first part was just to meet me and allow me to meet them and discuss a little bit about the business they are doing. The Customer Satisfaction manager was very people-oriented interview, just to clarify how they do business and to know a little bit about myself. For the CEO interview I had to prepare a quick presentation about Splunk, complete with business cases, describing its components, how it works, etc. The face to face interview was two weeks ago, and since then I just got radio silence. They just never replied, not a "yes" or "no", no feedback at all. A total waste of time and energy. Honestly, I believe the job interview is very important because it's a two-way process, it's how you start a healthy business relationship for both sides. It's an opportunity you have to build an opinion about how a company treat someone, specially someone they don't know but it's being considered for a job position. What I got from Riversafe was total neglect. I was approved by the tech team and the customer success and I'm not sure about the CEO opinion about me. The only thing I know is that they just never contacted me back, not even to say the reasons for a "yes" or "no", nothing, no feedback at all, zero! I had to put a lot of effort to do everything they asked me for and had a lot of patience to wait for the long weeks between delivering what they asked for and the answer, but honestly, I ran out of patience. The impression that I get is that they consider themselves so important that it's ok to just to neglect people in general. If that's how the company deal with people, I'm sorry, but it's not for me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked me to deliver a quite complex project on the tech interview and said they were pretty happy with what they received, but on the face to face interview I got questions like "tell me about the hardest day you had in your past" or "where do you see yourself in the next 3 years".
