      Software Engineer Interview

      10 Nov 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at DoorDash (Austin, TX) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      Recruiter reached out via Email. I responded to set up an initial call. That call was pleasant and mostly about interests, comp, and the process. They then requested I submit time for a followup code screen. They had to ask twice as the initial set of times did not work for them. The technical code screen was a particularly challenging tree diffing problem. The interviewer was not helpful and struggled to understand what I was communicating or help me. I got the distinct impression that they weren't paying attention. When I would ask for help or clarification they had to spend 30s+ trying to figure out where I was. I would expect them to be following along. I ended up getting very close to a solution - code compiling - and 1 test case passing. It was clear that I was very close to the solution, but wasn't quite able to get it in the time allotted. After the interview completed, I discovered a small typo which led me to complete the problem after the fact. Given they decided not to move forward, I left with the distinct impression that unless you got it perfect, you would not meet their requirement of displaying adequate technical signal. They also went over the allotted time by 25 minutes (the last 5 was time for me to ask questions). This was completely unacceptable. Interviewers should be respectful of folks time - even if that means not giving them enough time to get a working solution.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at DoorDash

      Interview

      Walking into the coding interview, I was taken aback when they asked about finding the K nearest restaurants based on coordinates. Just days before, I had stumbled on a mock on prachub.com that mirrored this question almost exactly. The interview felt straightforward, but I struggled with some behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was underwhelming; I expected more technical depth. After several rounds, they decided to go in another direction, which was disappointing given my prep efforts.
