      Software Engineer Interview

      30 Oct 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Smashing Boxes in Oct 2019

      Interview

      I applied online. The interview experience wasn't great and gave me a poor impression of the company culture. The coding challenge was fairly average but long. After submitting the challenge, the feedback that they gave indicated that they're looking for more Senior level engineers. They do state this in the job requirements (3-10 years and 2 -3 years specificially with React or Angular). For someone that is fairly new to software engineering though, and is still learning alot, as indicated on my resume, I applied anyway. The feedback received was constructive and brutal in the style/tone. To not have a phone screen, be given a lengthy and extensive coding challenge (took me way over 5 hours to complete with several "things we look for"), at such an early stage in the interview process felt disrespectful of my time. The overall process felt impersonal, disorganized, and rushed (the recruiter forgot to send me a confirmation link and missed our phone screen, although she did apologize). It is super great that they give actual feedback and the turnaround is quick. However, overall the experience left me with a bad impression.

      I interviewed at Smashing Boxes

      Interview

      Interview process consisted of a quick and very simple phone based interview, a programming test, and finally an in person interview with the team to ask much more detailed questions.
