I applied online. I interviewed at Qt Group (Oulu)
Interview
The first step was a 30 minutes technical interview consist of about 30 short questions. Since the position was related to graphics programming, half of the questions were about C++ and others were about general and Qt related graphics stuff. Afterward, I asked to do a test project which I could choose between two options provided, both were related to Qt graphics API and shaders. Upon successfully finishing the test project, there would be another round of technical and non-technical interviews
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In what order are constructors run in C++ class hierarchies.
There were 2 steps that I took.
- Tech
General and basic cpp questions. The programming depth wasn't deep since the interviewer wasn't in a tech field.
- Behavioral
They asked me how I would handle the project, how I would take it to your client.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Qt Group (Hamburg)
Interview
Quite disorganized. I was passed through many stages, including a full day in the office, where it didn't seem to be really prepared to my visit. Necessity of some meetings in the office that day was questionable. Of course rejection without no meaningful feedback after lots of my time spent.
Contattato al telefono, ho chiesto all'interlocutore di sentirci in un altro momento (al pomeriggio) perché ero impegnato in quel momento. Ovviamente: non mi ha più richiamato. Per me, dimostrazione di scarsa professionalità.
