I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UKG (Boston, MA) in Oct 2022
Interview
2 part video interview. One with director of the space I was interviewing for and one with a principal engineer. I was extremely nervous but they were incredibly nice. The first person interviewing told me he interviews all the time and he’s not going to “pass / fail” but he would give feedback regardless of if I moved on and I respect and appreciate that. Some technical questions specific to the job description and some questions about past experience.
First a chat with the recruiter, followed by an hour technical screen, followed by an onsite where I talked to the hiring manager and two members of the team. Everyone in the process was very nice but I ultimately did not get the job.
Part of the first round was a technical test through HackerRank. The questions consisted of four multiple-choice questions and two coding questions. Typically based on Algorithms and Data Structures. You get a few days to prepare, and if you need an extension, you can ask. But be aware that the sooner you turn it in, the sooner you can get reviewed, and they don't have infinite time to provide.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I didn't get any behavioral questions, but for HackerRank, one of the questions consisted of multiple choice in deciding which sort method was best, given a situation.
Phone
Panel interview with 3 developers of varying levels. Was informed I wasn’t gonna pass the interview about 2 weeks after the interview. Overall very friendly and passionate developers who knew their stuff and asked challenging questions.
