Visa Inc. Interview Questions

Application

The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (San Francisco, CA).

Interview

I have had numerous interviews this past few months. Visa was one of the worse.

Overall disorganized. Interviewer refusing to turn on his camera while video conferencing (and giving a lame excuse that his camera was broken). It’s just disrespectful.

The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Foster City, CA).

Interview

Very bad. Disorganized, lots of ego, zero communication or follow up prior to or post interview. Long drawn out process. Very amateurish and would have expected more out of a company the size and maturity of Visa.

Interview

Recruiter said they wanted me on the team. Then kept dragging me along only to tell me the position no longer existed even after emailing weekly with updates on the status on moving forward.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Austin, TX).

Interview

Invited to the job fair to apply and talk about opportunities. Recruiter, manager or HR was not present. Interviews conducted by various engineers, even recent graduates, for different roles. It was hard to tell who was interviewing for what roles. Few asked me to go talk to someone else. Not clear if there was any interest, or what the next steps would be. New graduates and junior programmers seems to be more lucky.

Applied on Visa's smartrecruiter page. Was contacted within a day with a hacker-rank challenge (2 questions, 90 minutes). That was followed by a 30-minute behavioral interview with the manager then an hour long technical interview with two senior engineers in the deparment. I was kept updated quiet frequently by the HR team and recieved a rejection email about a month after the technical interview

Interview

1) Hackerrank 120 minutes (1 Leetcode medium one easy)
2) Phone Interview with Lead (Discussion about Java and topics from my resume).
3) Skype Interview with Chief Software Engineer and directors. (2 rounds).

Chief Software Engineer was one of the uncivil people I have ever encountered . Doesn't know how to dry run a code I had to tell him where the recursion ends and how it ends.
Interview (His video was turned off):
Me: Hi <his name>
Him: Ok so you know my name let's start.
What is DAG (I told him what is DAG).
Okay, you leave it to remove a node from a BST. I wrote the 80% of the code. He Stopped me in the middle and said you leave it just insert the node for me.
I asked him if there was something wrong with removal code. He got offended and said do you really think this will work. I explained my thinking and did a dry run of the code which he was not able to understand and interrupted a lot and then said yes this will work.
Then he said we just have 10 minutes solve a SQL question for me I wrote the query. He said that's not how we write it. HR will get back to you bye.

If you have such a high ego then please don't take interviews.

Interview

I was contacted by a recruiter and he scheduled an interview for later that week. The recruiter never called during our agreed upon time. Hours later he emailed me and asked if I had any availability for later in the day. I respond and never hear back from him. He then calls during my available time slot...Ok. We have a good conversation and he schedules me to speak with the hiring manager. The hiring manager calls a half hour late. At this point, I'm not too excited about the company. I talk with her and she asks me to submit a case study. Guess what, I never hear back.

This is by far the worst interview experience I've ever participated in. I'm not sure why I even kept going. So many red flags. I would advise looking elsewhere. There are better companies out there that at least have the respect to keep an appointment and communicate with you.
