Couchbase

Anonymous Interview Candidate in London, England

No Offer
Negative Experience
Average Interview
Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Couchbase (London, England) in Apr 2023

Interview

Applied on their website, and a few days later I got an email from the recruiter which seem to have been an automated message to book a pre-screen interview. I booked a slot for a specific day and time expecting some kind of confirmation from the recruiter that they would either call or send me a link for a video call. Didn't receive anything and when it got to the interview day I didn't receive any contact from them either. Not the best candidate experience.

I interviewed at Couchbase

Interview

Saw this job description for a graduate software engineer position and was delighted to apply. I had to go through a pre-recorded interview to proceed to the next stage. After submission, I was told that someone in the technical support team was interested in having a chat. Obviously, I applied to a software engineer position, so why would you instead offer me a technical support role?! A waste of time.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Couchbase (Austin, TX) in Dec 2022

Interview

5 interview, had to come in for two of them. Communication for next stages was very slow to develop, had to give availability multiple times. Wasn’t given a clear picture of how many stages. Last interview was over an hour long with inconsequential questions, plenty of ego as well. Sent me a 3 sentence paragraph saying I didn’t get the job with no details on why they passed. Waste of time and made you feel like they don’t care about people.

Amazing interview process. First round was couple of easy dsa questions like two sum and find if the array contains 50% of the same element. This was followed by concepts like parallel sort, threads and concurrency. Second round had one design question wherein in I was asked to implement malloc, free and compact function keeing fragmentation concept in mind. Third round was also a design question in which a large file was given and I had to efficiently read and find out prime numbers.
