      Full Stack Developer Interview

      30 Sept 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Anova Culinary

      Interview

      A very disrespectful interview that only (try to) judges personality and nothing about software development skills. They are trying to get the minority to join their company to look "cool" in the bay area. So if you are a white man, bad luck, forget about the company.

      Full Stack Developer Interview

      24 Jul 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Anova Culinary (San Francisco, CA) in Jul 2018

      Interview

      I was fully prepared to love them, given the phone interview. In-person was bizarre from beginning to end. First person kept asking questions about a completely different profession. I am a full stack developer but he would simply not quit asking about server logs. For about 40 minutes. I kept answering correctly, since I am very experienced with servers even though this was a developer position. His replies were "OK, but what if you couldn't do that?" So I would give another alternative. "OK, but what if you couldn't access the server that way?" Finally, it comes out that the secret password was "Logly". I was supposed to guess that they had outsourced their server log storage to Logly, and that I was supposed to check for server problems there. Not one single programming question; nothing about javascript, react, browsers, the DOM, nothing. The secret password was "Logly". Second person had personally come up with this flawed algorithm for sorting arrays. I was supposed to be in such awe of it that I was to imitate this glorious algorithm in code on the whiteboard. It was 20 minutes into this torture that I pretty much gave up. Then, people who had seemed great on the phone turned out to be just good at hiding their insincerity. In person, you could tell.

      Question 1

      Please be a mindreader and guess what vendor we use for a service that is utterly unrelated to your programming job?
