      Embedded Software Engineer - - New Grad Interview

      12 Jan 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Fortinet

      Interview

      "DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND SAVE YOUR TIME FROM THEIR SCAM INTERVIEW PROCEDURE" (me and my other 4 friends are the victims). First, they will send you an online assessment containing coding and objective questions and in my case I had attempted all the questions correctly except one. Considered myself "fortunate" at that time as I got an interview call scheduled for 2 hours. Now the day has come ***excited***, in the beginning two guys interviewed me for 2 hours which went quite well as I had attempted all the coding questions and answered all interview questions correctly. ***fully confident*** . Then they asked me to wait for the manager to continue the interview process further. He started asking me questions at hardware level (which was not even related to the position I had applied for) then he questioned me about networking and OS concepts which were not basic at all, they could only be answered by some experienced person. And the whole process took more than 4 hours. After a day, I was informed by them that they were seeking highly experienced person for NEW GRAD position and then they referred me to another hiring manager for the interview. Guess what? same thing happened again, this time 5 people interviewed me at the same time asking me same foolish questions that were irrelevant. The interview process was so disorganized that they kept on intervening and contradicting each other while asking questions. They all were so rude that they stopped the interview as soon as I struck on one question, they didn't even bother to give me another chance to answer. P.S. - Even if I had received an offer, I would not have accepted me.

      Question 1

      Networking , OS, C++ and hardware questions as well (don't just expect basics of all these )
