      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rocket in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Pretty average and straightforward process. HR screen, a meeting with managers then a meeting with a team. It was kind of a waste of time as there was no structure the interview questions and felt like the managers were unorganized. Some questions felt like it came from a textbook. Kind of a waste of time considering they made me come on-site. They also make you do an online coding assessment test where you have to download a browser plug-in to track what you're doing. This seemed sketchy and the results were never discussed afterwards

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions about personal experiences. Questions out of a textbook about programming and databases

      I interviewed at Rocket

      Interview

      Had a phone call with a recruiter, then took an online coding assessment, with a spyware browser extension that I was pretty uncomfortable installing. There was a mix up and the assessment was in a technology I was unfamiliar with. I emailed the recuiter and never heard back.
