Pretty straightforward and standard questions asked. Mostly asked about events and if I would be able to relate to consumers eager to attend events. Managers asking questions seemed to be not in sync with each other.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you diffuse an escalate call where the previous agent gave bad info to the customer?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ticketfly (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Met with some senior software engineers, managers and VP, first we had a phone screen with one of the senior engineers and that got me into the door, they flew me from LA to SF, where I met everybody else and the last interview was with the VP of Engineering.
Let's take into consideration that they were interested in my Performance Engineering work, therefore everything was mostly focused on that.
What strategies I knew about user behavior replication in order to mimic system utilization and measure the health of the system during a ticket on sale?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ticketfly (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Spoke to the recruiter, then had 2 phone screens (because I was being considered for 2 different positions) . Cleared both of those, and was invited onsite. Met with 4 people onsite including the hiring manager from one team.
One interview focused on my past experience , technologies used , agile working methodology etc. There were no technical questions asked in this one. The second one involved a whiteboard coding question. It was a good question, but was very coding intensive, not sure if it was the ideal one to be done on a whiteboard.
In the third round, I was asked some SQL , then was shown a piece of (groovy) code, and asked to point out design flaws in it. Last round with the hiring manager involved a design question and another whiteboard coding problem.
Overall, seemed to be a good team and I got some good interview experience.
I would have appreciated a lunch break or so, especially since the interviews started at 10 am and went on after 2 pm
