      Software Engineer Interview

      9 Aug 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Ciudad de Mexico
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Walmart (Ciudad de Mexico) in Jul 2020

      Interview

      I applied on LinkedIn, but they called me after almost two months. First, it was a short interview with someone from HR and she scheduled me for the next interview with the development manager. The next interview with the manager was very theoretical. Questions of the type, what is DI, what is the purpose of unit tests, knowledge of development frameworks, etc. A few days after this, they sent me a technical test that I had to solve in a week. Basically I had to develop an API either in DotNetCore, Spring Boot, or NodeJS to simulate a system to rate purchase orders of an online store, and also to give feedback on existing products within an order. Also, I had to use some persistent storage tools and provide proper unit tests. After this, since I finished the project, they scheduled me an interview in which there was a product manager, a senior developer, and the development manager. It is worth mentioning that this interview was rescheduled the same day, after having been waiting for 20 minutes. In the interview that was rescheduled, they asked me why I used the tools I had used and asked me to explain the architecture of the system, from the data layer, the endpoints, and some database diagrams. They also asked to justify the technologies used (in my case Postgres and dot net core). In addition, there were questions about how I could improve performance and also how you would implement some other systems (which I assume they need). In the end, it looked like everything had gone well. I asked for feedback the next week, but they only replied that there were no comments yet. A few days later I contacted them again, but I had no response. In the end, HR contacted me almost 3 weeks later to tell me that the position had already been closed.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is dependency injection and how do you use it? What is a unit test? What is the purpose of unit tests? What is an integration test? What does the S of SOLID stand for and why is it important?

      Software Engineer Interview

      Easy interview

      I interviewed at Walmart

      Interview

      Looking back, I feel like I gained a clearer understanding of the process, even though I ultimately turned down the offer. The technical rounds were straightforward, featuring an implementation question on an LRU cache and a system design question about a rate limiter for an API. What helped me a lot was the walkthroughs for system design I went through on PracHub, which made those types of questions feel familiar. Overall, it was an easy experience, but I just didn't feel it was the right fit for me.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Implement an LRU cache with O(1) get and put using a hash map plus doubly linked list
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Walk through how you would design a rate limiter for an internal checkout API

      Interview

      First, standard short phone call with recruiter. Then a 1-hour interview with an engineer on the team, asked about technical experience and background, and did a live coding assessment via video call. Fairly standard Leetcode style questions

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Walmart

      Interview

      Intense but rewarding — the interview for the Software Engineer position at Walmart Labs was tougher than I anticipated. The technical rounds included an LRU Cache implementation question where I had to articulate my design thoughts on thread safety, followed by a complex system design for a real-time inventory service. What made a difference in my prep were the company-specific prompts I found on prachub.com; they really helped me understand the types of questions I might face. Despite the challenging nature of the interviews, I ultimately received an offer but chose to decline.
