      Software Development Engineer Interview

      Aug 10, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Santa Clara, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at ServiceNow (Santa Clara, CA)

      Interview

      I was first given an online coding exercise that I easily finished. They moved me to telephonic screening where I was asked some object oriented design questions along with moderately complex coding questions (like in order traversal and things like that - nothing too hard). I successfully finished that as well. The interviewers were very kind and seemed professional. They then flew me to their office in San Jose. They must have already finalized their candidate for this position by the time they interviewed me. Their conspicuous indifference in the way all the four interviewers interviewed me made me feel they were in a huge hurry to wrap up the day and go home. Each of them gave me a coding exercise and let me keep on writing and writing on the glass board while they were simply messaging their co-workers and doing some work on their laptop. It was sheer neglect all along the interview - they simply did not have any interest to be doing that. While I am sure my answers were fully correct (the interviewers had to accept it!) still they found ample negative questions and tried to put my answers in bad light. Every interviewer spent at least thirty mins asking some sort of questions to pull my legs. They were deliberately vague in their questions and made is as hard as possible for me to answer. My advise to them is that its fine if you have decided to hire someone else already but please be professional and courteous to candidates who come from far off places. It ain't employers market like in financial crisis. People will find good positions with or without Servicenow. As far as I am concerned I will turn it down even if they come back to me with an offer. Their interview experience was a sure wake up call for what lay ahead if I join the company.

      Question 1

      Nothing in particular - they were just trying to pull my legs and put me in bad light. They were just not interested in interviewing me. Thoroughly unprofessional and uncourteous.

      I interviewed at ServiceNow

      Interview

      The process was unclear and the recruiter was not very organized. There was a lack of communication and even conflicting meetings. I would think it's something specific to this recruiter/instance.
