I applied online. I interviewed at Verivox (Berlin) in Oct 2025
Interview
The first interview was with HR — very friendly and professional. The second stage was a technical interview with two team members, including a short online coding test and some PHP-related questions. They also asked questions while I was coding. About a week later, I had a team interview with five people, mostly focused on teamwork and communication. Two weeks after that, I was informed that the team didn’t choose me because they didn’t feel I was the right fit.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
If you could bring one feature from another programming language you’ve worked with into PHP, what would it be?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Verivox in Feb 2020
Interview
The HR contacted me through phone and asks couple of questions. After that i received the programming test. Despite i have solved the programming. I was given one sentence as answer your solution is not as per requirement. When i asked for further explanation i was not given any feedback. It seems the IT team itself does not have proper expertise and having lack of programming knowledge. The don't give proper feedback and don't value other person time. I would never recommend this company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Develop a model to build up the following two products and to compare these products based on their annual
costs. The comparison should accept the following input parameter:
• Consumption (kWh/year)
and create a list of these products with the columns
• Tariff name
• Annual costs (€/year)
The list should be sorted by costs in ascending order.
Products
1. Product A
Name: “basic electricity tariff”
Calculation model: base costs per month 5 € + consumption costs 22 cent/kWh Examples:
• Consumption = 3500 kWh/year => Annual costs = 830 €/year (5€ * 12 months = 60 € base
costs + 3500 kWh/year * 22 cent/kWh = 770 € consumption costs)
• Consumption = 4500 kWh/year => Annual costs = 1050 €/year (5€ * 12 months = 60 € base
costs + 4500 kWh/year * 22 cent/kWh = 990 € consumption costs)
• Consumption = 6000 kWh/year => Annual costs = 1380 €/year (5€ * 12 months = 60 € base
costs + 6000 kWh/year * 22 cent/kWh = 1320 € consumption costs)
2. Product B
Name: “Packaged tariff”
Calculation model: 800 € for up to 4000 kWh/year and above 4000 kWh/year additionally 30
cent/kWh.
Examples:
• Consumption = 3500 kWh/year => Annual costs = 800 €/year
• Consumption = 4500 kWh/year => Annual costs = 950 €/year (800€ + 500 kWh * 30 cent/kWh
= 150 € additional consumption costs)
• Consumption = 6000 kWh/year => Annual costs = 1400 €/year (800€ + 2000 kWh * 30
cent/kWh = 600 € additional consumption costs)
RESTful service
Create a RESTful service to retrieve the products via GET
If you write tests for your implementation please provide them with your implementation.
Notes: Please implement this task in C#, PHP or JavaScript
I applied online. I interviewed at Verivox in Dec 2019
Interview
The First round of interview was with hiring manager which was sweet to me. Next, I have to do a small project(API) but it was not accepted by the software department.
