      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Illumio in Aug 2025

      Interview

      After Screening, I had interview with a technical team member who asked me to code a specific scenario but did not provide much clarity even after asking about it which caused confusion and he was asking the alternate ways to achieve the functionality.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They have asked the classic coding question commonly known as the "Number of Islands" problem, where 0 represents water and 1 represents land in a 2D matrix.

      Software Developer Interview

      Oct 1, 2024
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Sunnyvale, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Illumio (Sunnyvale, CA) in Sep 2024

      Interview

      I recently interviewed for a role, and the process was supposed to evaluate me for two positions. However, during the interview, no questions were asked about the second position, which was disappointing. One of the interviewers, a developer and admin, frequently added incorrect or misleading information to my answers. At one point, I confidently confronted the interviewer, explaining that my answer was correct, as I use the functionality daily. Despite this, the interviewer continued to misinterpret the information, seemingly relying on simplified responses from ChatGPT. When the architect asked questions, I felt that I answered them very well. However, the developer consistently interrupted with incorrect points, which made the conversation more confusing. While I respect the company's decision, I hope they consider improving the technical evaluation process, ensuring that interviewers provide accurate feedback and that both roles are fairly assessed as intended.
