      SRE Manager Interview

      Aug 12, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed (Austin, TX) in Jun 2022

      Interview

      The process from an engagement perspective was very positive. The recruiter was engaged, quickly to respond, reschedule when needed. There were few interviews, from technical to management deep dive as they call it. Management Interviews: Speak about your management style, give us examples, data to support your decisions in the past. Nothing out of the ordinary. Technical Interviews: Design a distributed system to handle some of the filters on the indeed.com page. This was a bit unreasonable as I was going through the interview, the interviewer gave me a reason to believe he already had a solution in mind and I somehow needed to read his mind. It was actually an uncomfortable interview. Felt it was very biased towards the interviewer point of view. Besides, when was the last time you actually get to design a distributed system from scratch? The next part of the interview was a code review , some kind of simple code to review but if you do not code everyday don't expect to pass this either. Same feeling, the technical interviews are one-sided and biased towards the opinion of the interviewer. It seems is a hit or miss and who does the interviews. A fail in the Indeed hiring process in my opinion.
