First a screening call with the recruiter, then a panel interview alongiside other applicants, then an individual interview with a higher level employee, then an interview with the ceo. There were a lot of rounds
There were 4 phases of the interview process. First was a phone screening. Then we did group interviews. After the group interviews, we had an interview with someone in a VP level role. Last interview was with an Executive of the organization.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Synoptek (Rochester, NY) in May 2023
Interview
1. Phone screening - I spoke with the DiscoverIT recruiter about the program and expectations for the interview process 2. Panel interview - I sat with 2 people from Synoptek and 4 other candidates for an hour and a half. There were questions that were open to be answered. I wasn't expected to answer every question. Questions were focused on experience and what-if's. 3. 1:1 interview - Met with one representative that had some questions about how I'd handle certain situations and a riddle. 4. CEO interview - Met with the CEO, he only had a few questions and a riddle. It wasn't about figuring out the riddle, it was a tough one, but more about explaining your process of how to figure it out and how you communicate through that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
First riddle. If you have a 3-gallon bucket and a 5-gallon bucket, how would you accurately measure 4 gallons of water?
