      Embedded Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 17, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Carlsbad, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Viasat (Carlsbad, CA) in Feb 2021

      Interview

      Half hour phone call with HR One hour technical screen with the hiring manager Virtual on-site interview consisting of 4 interviews with different people including another manager and potential teammates After going through the whole process, I followed up with the recruiter couple of times after 2 - 4 weeks for feedback since I didn't hear anything back, but HR ghosted me. The overall mood of the interviewers was gloomy and there seemed to be very little emphasis on solid software engineering and design. In retrospect, I think I dodged a bullet.

      Interview

      long, too many interviews, dragged out for weeks. Gave me a verbal offer, then cut the job. Won't interview there again, red flags. They were easy technical interviews, no coding assignments or anything ridiculous.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Viasat (Phoenix, AZ) in Jan 2021

      Interview

      Recruiter called, she seemed nice but she was just reading off questions from a piece of paper didn't feel like I was actually talking to her. She also seemed new like she didn't know what she was doing and didn't really explain anything well.
