ShipConstructor Software interview questions

The interview process was extremely lengthy, but fair. The whole process consisted of 3 total interviews. The first was a short and simple programming exercise where I was asked to provide 3 very basic software solutions focusing on common Object Oriented Programming patterns. The allotted time was 30 minutes, but I doubt many people would need the full time as the problems were not challenging. The following 2 interviews were 2 hours each. The first of these longer interviews consisted of questions about my professional experiences (e.g., “Have you ever had a disagreement with someone at work and how did you resolve it?”) and a few technical questions (e.g., “What is the difference between an abstract class and an interface?”). The second of these longer interviews was going through my resume and asking relevant questions about my experiences at each job (e.g. “what were some of your likes and dislikes at Company XYZ?”) There was some overlap in the questions between these 2 interviews. All in all, the process took about 1 month. It sounds like they had a number of candidates to evaluate when I applied, so it took a while to hear back after the final interview. The long wait to hear back was a bit nerve wracking, but I think that was mainly because I had decided I really wanted to work with this company after getting to know some of the employees in the interviews. I'm very glad the lengthy interview process resulted in an offer. I think I would have felt much worse about it if I had spent all that time and not gotten an offer.

3 steps, one with HR, the other with the team, and the last one with the COO. Average 2 hours for the last 2 and 20 minutes for the first one.
