      Java Developer Interview

      6 Sept 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Lausanne
      No offer
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at EdgeLab (Switzerland) in Feb 2021

      Interview

      The process consists in 5 steps as they described once they got in touch with me. - Quiz testing your knowledge on Java - Phone screening with our HR - Coding challenge - Technical interview with developers - Soft interview with a non-technical person The process stops at third step after telling me they were going to send me a coding challenge but never happened. I had to ask to know they moved forward with another candidate. Really unprofessional

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      - Quiz testing your knowledge on Java: Nothing complicated, hitting the most popular concepts about Java but with a very tight timer. StringBuilder vs String ; difference between equals, == and hashCode; Exceptions; abstract class and interfaces, inheritance in general, lambdas, streams, etc - Phone screening with our HR: Usual questions to introduce yourself and the company

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EdgeLab (Switzerland) (Lausanne) in Sept 2018

      Interview

      The interview process was divided in 3 different steps: - Quiz - Coding Challenge - On site interview I was interviewing for a position in Zürich. After sending my CV, they sent me a quiz regarding Java and Spring, the quiz was though and it was 30 questions to be completed in 15 minutes. After that it was a coding exercise where you had to build an hospital simulator where drugs are administered to patients. Then there was a small call to organise for the on site interview and then I went to Lausanne for a final interview of 2 hours. The whole process was not so pleasant as before the final interview I still did not speak with the company about what technologies they use, what they do and what exactly they are looking for. The call before the on site interview clearly expressed that there was interest in my profile and that, even though the final interview could have been through skype, an on site interview would have been more relevant and could have shown better a candidate skills. However even if the final interview was nice and I thought it went fine, I have been rejected with an automated message without any reason, which was quite unprofessional also considering no expense refund was provided and form the start it looked like they were not really valuing candidates.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1
