      Software Engineer Interview

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Forward

      Interview

      Recruiter was very friendly. The process goes that you get a recruiter screening, technical screening then you proceed to onsite with 4 interviewers for coding, behavioural and system design. The interviewers were generally young <30 and some lacked proper interview etiquette. Some may guide you towards a wrong solution, and later mention issues that you performed a tradeoff on. Some will have trouble framing the question or what the problem is they want the interviewee to answer, and they will want it done in a certain way. The interview will be less of an open discussion about the design, and more questions and answers. Overall it was a very neutral experience, though the mission and strong leadership is exciting, I wouldn’t interview here again.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Patient and Doctor are talking. How to assist a scribe to transcribe the talk in real-time to structured, informative data that displays in real-time to the users.

      I applied online. I interviewed at Forward

      Interview

      It was pretty normal as far as interviews in tech go for entry level engineers. It felt like they were spending more time selling me on their product than on questioning me. Some standard Leetcode style question.

      Something about the minimum travel distance on a keyboard grid.

      Application

      I interviewed at Forward (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Medium difficulty. Interviewed before the company abruptly shut down. Like the team, did not get many specifics about the business, particularly regarding the care pods. It was a few phone screens and then onsite.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why healthcare. They really cared about this.
