      Senior Engineer Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Hopper

      Interview

      Instead of an HR round, I was connected with an engineer who seemed ill-equipped to handle this stage of the interview process. This engineer asked me about my salary expectations, which is not a question that should be posed by a potential future colleague. This should have been handled by the HR department. The next round was a live coding session with the head of department, who, to be frank, asked me some basic copy-paste behavior questions. After that, I was given a simple problem to solve, which I managed to solve in just five minutes. And that was it - the interview was over. I received a template email a week later that I had been rejected, but no explanation was given as to why. Was it because I solved the problem in five minutes, or did the department head g simply run out of questions to ask? Based on other feedback on Glassdoor, it seems clear that there is a need for some changes in the engineering leadership at this company. The interview process needs to be revamped, and the company needs to put in place a more effective HR department that can handle the initial screening process. Overall, my experience with this company was disappointing, and I would not recommend it to others.

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Hopper in Jan 2022

      Interview

      Probably the all-time worst interview process I've ever been subjected to. Any company that relies this heavily on algorithmic challenges clearly does not know how to interview. One challenge is tolerable. But this company started with a 4-hour take home algorithmic challenge. Then had not one, not two, but three additional interviews all focused on solving useless puzzles. As a veteran dev, I have to come up with an algorithm maybe once every two years. When will companies understand that this is pointless?

      Question 1

      Given the structure of a conversation tree, and given the user responses, print out the entire conversation. Reverse the letters of a word using a recursive algorithm.
