Received a coding challenge through HackerRank. I made sure I passed all the test cases and checked against a lot of custom test cases as well just to be sure that I had handled everything and the code was working perfect, very efficiently. But received a reject in just 2 hours saying it did not pass all the test cases. I am pretty sure that was not the reason. I had checked against all the test case there could possibly be and the code ran just fine.
So if you guys are not serious about hiring - please do not waste the candidate's time by sending online coding challenges.
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience. The coding challenge is intended to be a difficult first step in the interview process for any candidate we are interested in hiring for this role. While we didn't move forward with your application at this time, I hope that you will consider us again in the future.
Best,

Other Software Engineer New Grad interview reviews for Whitepages
I applied online. I interviewed at Whitepages in Apr 2019
Interview
I received an online coding challenge via HackerRank. I spent a significant effort making sure it passed the edge cases. I went further, explained the code in comments and refactored it as well. No response. Not even a rejection. I sent a couple follow up emails and still nothing.
Do not waste your time taking this challenge. It's not trivial and they don't even have the courtesy to respond. Spend your time studying or anything else productive.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Array hopper. you have to return the indices as well so its a bit more complex than the one found online
Coding Challenge, 15 minute phone screen, 2 technical phone interviews, and a final onsite. While the engineers were great to talk to, and the culture seems great, but my recruiter lacked a lot of communication. Can't reveal more information, but it felt like they were telling me lies to stall for time.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Whitepages (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2018
Interview
Passed the online assessment and had a short conversation with the hr. Not selected to proceed to phone screens. It does not make sense to me since I did pass the online assessment and had a great conversation with the hr but still could not even get a chance to prove my engineering skills by conducting a phone screen. Hope this company would give equal opportunity to everybody who has shown some qualifications of the job in the future.
