Thank you for taking time and giving us feedback. It sounds like there are two areas of concern: 1) pre-testing and 2) relevant interview questions. On the first item, we have all developer candidate applying for positions SDE I-IV take a timed, auto-scored assessment. This is level the field for applicants on the sort of problem-solving and coding skills expected at the level in question. If you didn't receive such an assessment and applied to one of those levels, then we missed the mark. I'll troubleshoot this further with my team. For the second item, it sounds like you were asked a situational problem but the reason for it being asked (relevancy) was not clearly conveyed to you. We do train to this in our interview workshops and I've contacted hiring managers to emphasize the need to do tie in any question to the work engineers do here at GoDaddy. Again, thank you pointing out where we can improve!
