      Junior Software Engineer Interview

      10 Dec 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman

      Interview

      The interview process was fun and really left me wanting to join their company. I interviewed with two engineers. They did a large number of on-campus interviews on the same day, but they were enthusiastic even tho I'm sure they had interviewed 14 or more individuals by the time I met them. They asked me questions about my experience and had marked notes on my resume ready prior to the interview, The interview questions were mostly standard coding questions with one meant to gauge teamwork qualities. I left the interview happy. Then came the dreaded HR. I received a call about a week or so later saying I got a job offer, while I couldn't talk for long at that moment the recruiter assured me she would get back in touch soon. She had sent my actual offer letter that day. Unfortunately, she proceeded to go on vacation for two weeks. I discovered this a week and a half later when I attended a dinner for all of the new hires who had received offers. I met great people and again really liked the company. However, I still was desperately trying to get in touch with my hr rep as I had received other offers for $8k-$18k more and wished to negotiate a better offer i would be able to accept. Unfortunately after a few emails, her ignoring our scheduled call and only calling me back after I, as a voicemail, mentioned I had other offers did she respond. She said they would not negotiate unless I sent them copies of the documents detailing my other offers un-edited. I casually asked if that was legal, to which I was told yes and that I must do it if I wanted to negotiate a better salary. I took a few days to write back a well-written response vetted by many of my colleagues basically saying morally I didn't feel comfortable doing this and that I would appreciate the best and final offer. On the last day I had in order to decide or the offer would expire I got an email with a second offer which was still $4k under my next lowest. needless to say, I declined. TLDR: great interview and engineers, the first offer was low, HR was a nightmare, wouldn't negotiate without copies of my other offer letters; I declined for morality reasons and got a second offer that was still my lowest offer.

      Junior Developer Interview

      6 Jan 2020
      Anonymous employee
      Fairfax, VA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Fairfax, VA) in Sept 2019

      Interview

      Very technical but relaxed. One coding question but lots of discussion about SQL, OOP concepts, web services, security, and data structures. Very friendly interviewer - best one yet - it was like talking to a buddy. Two people were supposed to show up but only one of them did. Received many compliments from the interviewer as he was thoroughly impressed by my answers and even called them "cogent." Received an offer along with something else less than 2 hours after my interview - the first and only time this has happened to me. Unfortunately had to decline because of the distance and because I was working at school - I really wish I took the offer.
