      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 21, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Meltwater

      Interview

      Experience was very bad. Firstly, I was informed that the round would be an introductory conversation and questions about past projects. However, it turned out to be a DSA-focused technical round. HR should notify this properly. Secondly, I found the interview experience challenging in a way that didn’t feel collaborative. The interviewer was quite unapproachable and dismissive of clarifying questions, simply responding with “you have to think.” While I understand that interviews are meant to test problem-solving skills, some basic direction or clarification can go a long way in making the process more constructive and less discouraging. 2 questions were asked, both were answered but he was not satisfied with solution and was not telling that whats going wrong and didnt provided any cases which can fail.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meltwater (Montreal, QC) in Jun 2014

      Interview

      Was pretty casual - questions were more based around past experience. They were looking more for a cultural fit as it would be a small team. First interview was with one team - second was one-on-one in person with future manager.
