      Software Engineer Interview

      5 May 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Datadog in May 2021

      Interview

      I applied for two roles: one that I was perfectly qualified for and another that I wasn't. I was told that I was rejected for the perfect role with no explanation. Had a screen scheduled for the other one, which was implied to be by phone. So, I just assumed they'd ring me. Got an email a few minutes after it was due to start with a Zoom link. Late and what if I wasn't at a computer? Not a good start. The screen itself was fine and the interviewer was polite and easy to talk to. I inquired about the rejection and I was told that they had no information about it. I was told there'd be four more rounds: a live coding test, a take-home challenge, a systems design discussion and a final round with the hiring manager. I decided not to proceed. Not the worst ever but I just sort of lost interest by the end of the first round.

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Datadog

      Interview

      El proceso constó de tres fases principales. Primero, apliqué online a un puesto de trabajo disponible. Posteriormente, pasé a una entrevista técnica de aproximadamente una hora, enfocada principalmente en el desarrollo, integración y securización de APIs. También discutimos estrategias de despliegue, monitorización y gestión de recursos en la nube utilizando el ecosistema de Azure. Por último, realizamos un ejercicio conversacional sobre buenas prácticas de código y arquitectura. Fue un proceso fluido y el equipo fue muy profesional.
