      Staff Engineer Interview

      16 Aug 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Fremont, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SolarReviews (Fremont, CA) in Jul 2022

      Interview

      lack of communication with unnecessary build up by HR, who vanishes once you are done with the interview or when they find any other candidate who they find better. The HR even confirmed to boost me up before the final round that everybody else interviewed was rejected so give your best shot and then ghosts you for a week once the interview is done. More than 2 weeks were wasted to get an application made to build up by you and then in evaluation. The developers were friendly and polite (in fact way more realistic).they were the ones who responded to the emails and confirmed the rejection. Transparency with communication without giving any false hopes / ghosting would be a better approach to interview any candidate who invested there time and energy for an assignment which is meant to be for there “account section” as an example.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Generic laravel questions, eloquent,how you approach to build up for a project etc
      1 Answer

      Question 2

      Take home assignment to build up a project for there account section
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Another round after a week of constantly asking about the coding assessment , to discuss my efforts and outlook on how I developed that assessment which made me wait for another week and then another week while they interviewed other candidates
