      Software Developer Interview

      9 Sept 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Penn State in Aug 2024

      Interview

      Don't bother applying. They're just like every other unprofessional company, showing their true colors when the market gives them a bit of leverage. After applying, instead of scheduling an interview, they request pre-screenings to further weed out candidates. They also use the screenings to reveal that the salary range is substantially lower than what was listed in the job posting. They clearly don't respect candidates enough to offer the dignity of an actual two-way interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They just send pre-screening surveys and don't bother to interview.
