      Applications Analyst Interview

      Aug 7, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Saint Petersburg, FL
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Dayforce (Saint Petersburg, FL) in Jul 2019

      Interview

      The first Call is from the recruiter. They ask simple questions, nothing to worry about here. After the initial phone call they set you up for a technical interview. The technical interview split up into 3 sections. 1. SQL Questions, IE What is a priamry/foriegn key, what is a join, they ask you to use a join. 2. Technical questions/Trouble shooting 3. Customer facing questions The last part of the interview process is a face to face interview. This was more casual and they asked customer facing questions but nothing too difficult. Asked simple questions such as what are you weakness, greatest strengths, what would your last boss say was your greatest strengths, how has your day been, why are you leaving your current position. It was a weird interview and it seemed as though they were just trying to see if I would fit culturally and not if I could do the job. In my situation, after a week they did not move forward with me. I called my recruiter Sue and she was able to set up another interview with another team and manager. I was able to skip the first two parts of the process and go straight to the last interview. This interview was over the phone and was much different than my in person interview. The questions only came from one manager that was based in Canada and he asked these questions. 1. how would you describe "the cloud" to a 4 year old or a customer. 2. What is the difference between a join and a Union. 3. Gave me a situation to use a Join or union. 4. Is the customer always right? It seemed as though the first team I interviewed for was less of a technical team than the second team based in Canada. even though it was for the same position.

      The whole interview process was well structured throughout. First I got a call from HR where I was asked some basic questions and the HR person then scheduled the interview. The interview itself lasted about 45 mins whereby I was asked some basic interview questions and some technical ones

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Dayforce (Ebène) in Jan 2022

      Interview

      It consisted on human resources' questions about yourself: your career, your education, etc. They ask you questions for example, what happened when you had to deal with a difficult client, etc. There were barely any sql questions so overall it was a nice interview.
