Lab49 Interview Questions

Company contacted me on LinkedIn for this open role and then after an hour virtual interview requested I send them: (1)30-60-90 day plan if/when you join LAB49. (2) Key contacts in the FS industry by company/division/position (3) FS companies where you have done prior pitches. They emailed me to schedule time to speak with me but never set up the time and ghosted me.

1st round - online quiz (~15 min) 2nd round - hr screening (30 min) 3rd round - technical interview video call (90 mins) 4th round - management interview (scheduled 1 hour, ended in 30 mins) All interviews except the last one were professional and friendly, the quiz was fairly easy and I got through with only 70%. The technical interview was like pair programming and really friendly, I also got some knowledge out of this. However the last interview was a bad experience. My last company shut down during my probation period (I worked there last than 3 months) and the interviewer was extremely fixated on what the companies product was. I was a frontend developer and I explained my part in creating the product and I tried to move the conversation to my previous experiences of which I could have explained better. Maybe it was because english is a second language for me and there was a slight language barrier also but I could not shake the feeling the interviewer wanted the reasons of the company failure from me. Unfortunately this last interview made it all a time waste.

Initial tech screen over phone. In-person interview that’s supposed to last 2 1/2 hours that actually lasted six. Everybody was 30-45 minutes late, I spent hours by myself across the course of the day. 3pm and I wasn’t provided a break for lunch, never mind lunch. Eventually they gave me water and a banana. When I got the job offer, it came at 68% of the salary they’d promised in the initial interview. Then they guilted me for declining the offer, and followed that up with verbal put-downs.

1. Screen round of 12 questions in 17 minutes - cleared successfully. Were mostly based on cucumber, gherkin and syntaxes for defining step definitions 2. Round 2 was asked to go for Technical interview on hackerrank where we were supposed to find bug in the given code. But was asked to solve 2 coding questions during the interview.

Lots of interview rounds, but they are as quickly as possible! An HR round, then a 30 min test with multiple choices, then an hour long coding session with screensharing two times, then 2 discussions with high executives. But the whole procedure can be done in one week!

First chat with the recruiter. Then move onto a 17mins timed multiple choices regarding the testing frame work and scripts. Didn’t know all questions are very specific regarding gherkins. Failed at this round. Certainly there’s no moving forward. Believe lab49 is looking for someone to hit the ground running on day 1.

quick. the 2nd interviewer was kind of grumpy and had very bad communication skill. first interviewer was okay. i need a few more words to make 30. still not 30 words?

Multiple calls with agent (a lot of miscommunication). 2 hangouts back to back with technical questions (no shadowing). Poor structure of the process, in one call the interviewer muted their mic suddenly and I wasn't aware if he was still there or if he dropped. Overall very amateurish process and miscommunication everywhere.

The overall process was very smooth. It was a long and elaborate process but all the rounds were very relevant to what we do on a day to day basis. Very well structured process. All interviewers were very polite and made me very comfortable. HR has been very supportive throughout the process.

There was one simple queez (probably there was 10 question and 10 mentes for that). After that I had two pair coding session. The first one was a simple algorithmic task, the other was a simple WebApp.
