Senior Software Engineer Interview Questions

"Senior software engineers are the most experienced member of a software team and usually carry the most responsibility and authority of that team. Because of this, interviews will be designed to find candidates who have expert knowledge of the field and years of experience as a software engineer. Expect to be asked tough technical questions and to give examples of previous projects that you have worked on."

The tech screen is a basic api app. I wanted to leave a review here to let you know why my sloppy code earned a rejection. Note - As I listened to the voicemail to list these reasons I checked my code and surprised that none of feedback aligns with what I submitted. * Cargo Cult Inclusions (? someone had a bad experience and I think I would do the same ?) * Debugging Statements left in (I didn't have any binding.pry or puts so I don't know what that means) * Base requirements were not met such as "Opening a PR". ( I don't see this requirement in the README) * Bonus items where not attempted (did not lose points but doesn't help with so much sloppy code).
