      Engineering Manager Interview

      Houston, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Indeed (Singapore) in Jun 2022

      Interview

      A very nice recruiter called, he followed up with multiple email that guides the entire process, he's the reason why this review wasn't negative 1. Architecture design 2. Behavioral interview with a "senior engineering director" that keeps yawning during the interview, the irony here is that it was a behavioral interview. I was concerned so I asked him if everything is ok, he just straight up said something along the line of "it's fine, i'll let you know when i hear enough". Guy will probably fail his own behavioral interview 3. Code Review 4. Ghosted for 2 weeks 5. Rejection

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Indeed (Houston, TX) in Sept 2021

      Interview

      I was contacted for an interview after applying online. The recruiter walked me through their intensive interview process consisting of 5 interviews with significant prep required for most steps: engineering management, architecture, resume deep dive, coding challenge, and code review. I was also given a "pop quiz" style question on architecture directly from the recruiter just to make sure I could meet their standards. Initially, I was impressed with the structure and thoughtfulness of their interview process which includes a 6 page description of their interviews. Then I was coached on how I should specifically respond to certain questions. For the architecture interview, I was told I would not be allowed to ask follow up questions once I started diagramming out the solution. For the engineering management interview, I was told to never use "we" language in favor of "I" language, even when something was a team effort. From these tips, I determined Indeed had a very narrow view of what success looks like for the position, one that especially discriminates against women. In the end, I decided not to continue with their interview process so I could focus my attention elsewhere.

      Engineering Manager Interview

      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Indeed in Aug 2018

      Interview

      The Recruiter writes expression of interest in my candidature and wants to know of a time that is convenient for chat over google/skype. We agreed on scheduled date/time on google-hangout. On the scheduled date/time, the Recruiter fails to show-up and writes a note after half-hour saying I seem to be unreachable and seeks another time for call. It's terrible on 2 two counts: That the recruiter is out rightly dishonest and seem not to know basics of how tech work. Had he initiated a hangout, google sends an invite as email, which didn't happen. I cited this to check if he will apologize. He didn't and insisted that perhaps something is wrong with google. With this he demonstrated that culture of blaming in indeed. I responded saying that there is no point scheduling another meeting without know how to fix the issue. I asked him if he is game to have a discussion on skype. I wanted to check his level of interest and honesty. He did not reach out to me thereafter. Good riddance! Summary: I'm keen on the company's culture. A recruiter is the first ambassador for a company and if he turns out to be bad, that is an indication for what you are signing-up for.
