      Director of Engineering Or Engineering Manager Or Team Lead Interview

      Oct 6, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Pocket Gems (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      Had a couple rounds of phone interviews, then a technical test on coderpad.io. They were really unsure about what the role is. I think they wanted a heavily technical person, who babysits the junior folks. Not really my thing. The process took 6 weeks. Had an inital phone call with HR, then with the Director, then they scheduled an online technical test, to whcih they completely blew me off. No phone call or nothing. I took the whole day off my current job to be available and they didn't even send me cancellation email. Rude. During every step of this process I had to keep prodding HR for any sort of forward movement. I finally got them to reschedule the technical test. A few days after the techncial test for feedback , since i had heard nothing. I emailed HR and within 5 minutes I got a response saying no thank you, we only want the best. What a terrible thing to do is to make people chase you down inorder for you to tell them no. The tech lead mentioned they "work hard and play hard", which of course, is code for, 60 hour weeks.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Asked an advanced algorithm question, how to write a function to copy all the nodes in a graph. Had to do this on the coderpad.io, always clunky at best.
