      Senior Staff Engineer Interview

      Aug 27, 2024
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SentinelOne in Jul 2024

      Interview

      The interview was challenging not only due to the technical requirements but also time-wise. At the beginning, I had an initial screening interview where I was asked general technical questions. In the second interview, I worked on a brain teaser, which I think was interesting, and we discussed different approaches to solving the problem, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each solution. The next two rounds were live coding sessions, but I received the task in advance and was able to prepare the implementation. During both live coding rounds, I modified my solution and added improvements. The focus was mainly on the performance of the final solution. The last round was with my future manager, and he asked me questions focused on team management.

      Question 1

      What would you do if you came across code in an existing codebase that you didn't consider to be of high quality?
