      Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 4, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Dublin, Dublin
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at WP Engine (Dublin, Dublin)

      Interview

      I was reached out to by a member of recruiting to see if I was interested in a position in wpengine. I was interested and a phone interview was set up with the recruiter. I was asked some standard questions about experience , salary expectations etc. After this I was invited to do a code exercise that was suppose to take 2 to 3 hours. This code exercise is quite large and realistically takes more than a day to get to get to production standard (which is a requirement in the code exercise spec) This includes testing, unit tests and providing documentation to build and run. I received a generic rejection email a few days later. After reaching out to get more feedback, I was informed that they have too many applications to provide feedback to an individual applicant. After spending over a day on a code exercise, for a company that reached out to me, I was very disheartened to be not given any feedback what so ever as to what was wrong with my code exercise Edit: After I made a complaint, the recruiter collected some feedback and called with the information. Although I did not agree fully with some of the comments it was nice to get the feedback. The recruiter was very nice about the whole situation and was very informative and professional with dealing with my complaint and providing feedback.

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at WP Engine (Limerick, Limerick)

      Interview

      I had a great interview process overall. After my initial contact with Ashlesha, she was able to match me with a role that matched my experience, unfortunately the first role I tried for didn't work out. Surprisingly, Ashlesha she got back to me with an interview offer for my current role and that matched my experience even better. The interview was moderate difficulty with 4 rounds of interviews with one coding interview and one architecture interview . Since i did start out interviewing for another role before this, I had about 7 total , but they were quick, completed everything within the span of like 3wks and was able to start immediately after I was approved, like literally passed the interview Thursday and started working the next Tuesday. I'm pretty satsfied so far with everything and look forward to all the journey has to bring ! Wishing best of luck to anyone currently job hunting , hopw you find a role that's your perfect fit !
