The process was fluent, three interviews including first contact with HR, technical interview and meeting the Team Lead. The technical one didn't require any life coding or problem solving exercise, it was quite simple where the interviewer asked general questions.

I interviewed at Sage

Interview

Clear, concise communication on the role. Challenged on job hopping & salary expectations. Otherwise positive experience with numerous situational-based questions - a time when I exceeded expectations, a time when I feared I wouldn't deliver on a project, a time when I managed conflict.

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Manchester, England

Negative Experience
Average Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Sage (Manchester, England) in Sep 2023

Interview

The interview process itself was excellent and I enjoyed the overall experience. The managers I met were relaxed and put me at ease. The reason why I believe it was not a great experience however is due to the following: Outcomes were supposed to be provided on the Friday following the interview, on Tuesday the following week when I had not heard back from them I had to email Sage to have the outcome sent to me. Additionally, Sage is proud to offer feedback to unsuccessful candidates to help them improve for the next interview which is phenomenal for a large company like Sage to do, however, it has been over a month since my interview and despite reaching out 3 times by email with my available dates and times, I have yet to be provided with an opportunity to receive this valuable feedback. The interview process was in 3 stages and as follows: - When you apply, a preliminary online interview is generated, where you have to record yourself answering some questions. - if successful, you will be invited to a group exercise with the other candidates where you will be given a scenario and have to problem-solve a solution through group discussion - Finally, the main interview involved a small presentation on "why you are a good fit for Sage". This is followed by some competency-based questions.

Interview Questions
  • - Give an example of a time you had to work in a team. - Tell Me a time you had to learn something new in tech. - Tell me a time you had to do something really difficult. - Tell me a time you had to collaborate with someone else or a team. - How would you test a Vending Machine? - What do you know about automation testing? - What languages can you code in?

Interview

1st call was with talent recruiter. 2nd was with hiring manager - this part was over before it even started. The hiring manager read questions off like a script and was obvious they already had another candidate they wanted to pursue. Wasting people's time and effort is not cool.

I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.
