      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Five9

      Interview

      Interview through 4 members of the team including hiring manager. More of a discussion than a grilling of tech knowledge. They were more interested in fit with team rather than specific tech background.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      26 Nov 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Portugal
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Five9 (Portugal)

      Interview

      Avoid this company at all costs! The interview process was an absolute nightmare, dragging on for around five months (!) and involving 9 to 10 rounds of interviews. Most were straightforward technical assessments, but the sheer number of steps and the excruciatingly long waits for feedback between each stage made the process feel endless. By the final interview, I was already frustrated with their lack of respect for candidates' time, which affected my motivation. To make matters worse, the interviewer came across as arrogant, asking outdated and irrelevant questions that seemed better suited to 15 years ago than to the present day. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere. Your time and effort deserve far better than this!

      Our standard interview process in Portugal is much shorter than you describe, so we are surprised to hear of your experience, but thank you for sharing it nonetheless.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Five9 in Jul 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was composed of 4 different interviews: HR, Manager, Coding, and System Design. The experience was actually one of the most pleasant interviewing processes I've had, everyone was super nice and professional while trying to assess my skills and understanding what it would be like to have me as a coworker.

      Question 1

      Alignment with Five9's mission and culture; Live coding exercises; Live system design discussion.
