      Software Developer Interview

      12 Jan 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Ottawa, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Magmic (Ottawa, ON) in May 2008

      Interview

      The interview was totally stage managed to try to throw me off. First, they kept me waiting for 25 minutes, then no sooner had I settled into a seat in their conference room to start the interview when someone comes in, "Oh, I thought I had the room booked ..." So, we happen to end up back in the VP's office. Luckily, for them they had a whiteboard with a couple of sample blocks of code on it. It soon became clear that these blocks were to be part of a test to see if I could understand their purpose. Sadly, they did manage to throw me with these tactics, so I didn't fare nearly as well as I would have liked. That being said, I'm not sure how keen I am to work with guys who'd try so hard to throw you off. One final note: all of the problems they presented me were easily found online, so they hadn't even dreamed up their own questions.
