      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Dec 8, 2023
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Leptondale, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at People Inc. (Leptondale, NY) in Nov 2023

      Interview

      Pretty standard interview pattern: HR phone screen, manager behavioral a week later. Another week later a technical interview with two engineers then a week later a final interview loop consisting of three interviews: PM, engineering with tech lead, and behavioral with dept head. Was told I wouldn’t be moving on and was given absolutely no indication why after WEEKS of interviews. Kind of disrespectful and a waste of time.
