    • Senior Java Software Engineer Interview

      Sep 20, 2022
      Anonymous employee
      Salt Lake City, UT
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (Salt Lake City, UT) in Sep 2022

      Interview

      Great job interviewing people with 10+ years of experience but not treating me like a college student. The interview questions properly tested a mix of leetcode-like questions and questions that tested experience. And the interview didn't span weeks and weeks and weeks. Very reasonable timeframe from interview-to-offer. 10/10

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A mix of your ordinary algorithm questions like sorting, etc. Very typical of an interview. Then some "break it" questions - what is wrong with this, create something with this issue, etc. Questions that only experienced developers can answer.
