      Software Engineer Interview

      16 May 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Self Financial in Apr 2022

      Interview

      Starts with a Recruiter call with some very basic questions about your background and some more information about the role. Next is a Hiring Manager chat, then I believe 2 technical interviews. Hiring Manager seemed disinterested from the beginning and asked the most uninspired questions I've ever gotten in an interview. Sounded like he googled the most basic an non-creative interview questions right before we met. Nonetheless I tried to answer them and practically had to beg to give supporting examples for my answers.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Self Financial in Jan 2019

      Interview

      Had an initial screening interview which had basics of data structures and algorithms. I was approached by one of the team members to build a project (nothing complex) using React or Angular. I had 2 technical rounds after this. One was UI focussed (I was asked to implement a feature in the app that I developed) and the second one was an algorithm (Paginator ) focussed.

      Software Engineer Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Self Financial (Austin, TX)

      Interview

      Started with a few online interviews, was told that fit was important, but 75% of the interviews were technical. Most of the technical questions weren't incredibly creative either and I would guess show up if you Google'd technical questions to ask in an interview. Of the few "fit" questions they were what I would consider "loaded" (you aren't expecting an honest answer from the interviewee). After more than a full day of interviews, I got an email telling me they will not be continuing the interview process but feel free to ask any questions. Asked for some feedback for the future, never got a reply back. At least spare 5 minutes to give me an idea what went wrong if I'm going to spend multiple vacation days to through with your prolonged interview process.
