      Software Engineer Interview

      23 Mar 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Datto in Mar 2020

      Interview

      Applied to a job in Rochester NY through their website, HR recruiter from the west coast emailed me to schedule a call with him. We had a quick call where we spent most of the time going over the whole interview process. He finished off the call by repeatedly telling me how he wanted to stay in close communication throughout the whole interview process in order for this to be a positive experience for us both and so I can benefit from this no matter what happens.... My negative experience was very similar to the others that have been added to Glassdoor. If you've already read the rest of the reviews on here and are willing to dedicate 4-5 hours or more preparing and taking the interview exam, continue reading below. He sent me and email to a cognitive test and a personality test, and another email for the programming test. Watch Youtube videos to prepare for the cognitive test. The personality test is something you can't really prepare for. As for the programming test. This thing sucked. The second question (there are 3 total) required you to program a connection to a REST API, read the JSON using the Jackson api class, and then read from a SQL DB. This is simple, although not something most people memorize, it's easy enough to complete in the time given. HOWEVER, you have to manually import everything. So all the methods and API's you might be used to using for SQL queries and DB connections or parsing JSON, now must be manually imported a the top of the .java file. So instead of being able to run and test the code I'd written, I spent the majority of my time searching Google for the class and package names of the imports. After completing only half of the programming exercise (I assume they just look at pass fail and not the actual code), I email the recruiter to tell him I had finished all three parts of the interview exam. He replied quickly saying I should hear back from him after 48 hours. 6 days later and I still have not received any communication back. If you have a busy schedule, or are interested in other positions elsewhere, make those a priority over this interview process. It's a waste of time. I had tons of free time and I still regret spending so much time and effort on this.
