      Exceptional Software Engineer Interview

      May 24, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Columbia, MD
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Parsons Corporation (Columbia, MD) in May 2016

      Interview

      Meet with HR, Meet with Security, Meet with deputy program manager, overview of benefits, release. HR called and said they found my contact information online and wanted to know if I was interested in a position. I said yes, they then asked me a few simple technical questions and based on my responses said they thought I would be a great candidate for the position so they set up an in person interview. Frankly, I find an interview that expects you to recite things that it would take you two minutes to pick up a book and find using reference to be unfair and limiting. I wish them luck finding the right candidate.. I didn't get the position .. they didn't think I was a good fit and the feeling is mutual.

Describe how to do a select from a database, describe how to do a select on a unique value then give a count for each unique value (basically a join between two queries). 7. Where do you see yourself in 5 years. 8. What are you a subject matter expert at? 9. What is your biggest achievement in previous jobs 10.
