      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Oct 11, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Vista

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me. The first interview round (one hour) was based on purely JavaScript knowledge. The next round was 2 hours. I assumed the questions in the final rounds to be front end related. But, I was asked to write class structures and a function to solve the given use case in both algorithm and system design round. I felt like they have to update the requirements that they are looking for someone with robust knowledge of backend concepts. If it was mentioned I would have never interviewed for this role. When I came up with an answer in the system design round, the interviewer gave me feedback that the solution was more in the react and javascript world. (of course I would write something in terms of javascript, I am front end developer, which is clearly mentioned in my resume) requirements received from the recruiter: Your Qualifications: • 3+ years’ experience in JavaScript engineering • 3+ years’ experience creating reusable components in React • Experience with open-source libraries • Experience with Typescript, React, and Redux • Mobile/responsive Front End application development experience • Experience conducting code reviews and automated testing Nice to Have: • Experience in AWS and Docker • Experience with Confluence, Jira, Gitlab or Gitlab CI • Experience with Jest

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 8, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Barcelona
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Vista (Barcelona) in Jun 2018

      Interview

      The interview is too long, it is not worth it. It all starts with a phone call from HR to briefly talk about the role, why are you interested in Vistaprint and your current job/ salary expectation/ notice period. After a week or so the next step in the process is for you to complete a Codility Test.The first part is a coding exercise (about telephone bill). The second part is an open question about the programming languages you like the most. If you pass this test, then there is a technical call with one Lead Software Engineer which will ask you about what programming languages you use, the difference between them, OO simple questions. tell about one project/task which you were happy/proud to do, how would you sell it to your 90-year-old grandma etc. And again, you wait for some time and if positive feedback they invite you to a round of interviews in their office in Barcelona. Before you actually go to the face-to-face interview, HR calls you again to talk about the interview. And then finally on this day they'll do a design test (class design, stacktrace of code, ask some changes to implement and use cases), then a code challenge (again) for you to implement some calculations of a shopping cart and discount vouchers to price. Then you have lunch with one of the guys, after that another interview with the technical manager in which he will ask about your current role (again), what do you do, how do you handle feedback, it seems that details are never enough here. In the end, it looks like this is the only interview that matters to them. as if you are talking to the guy who decides whether you pass or not. After all that you will do a kind of a retrospective (for those familiar with Scrum) which they will give you feedback on positive/negative aspects of you and how the interview went. But don't believe it totally, even when they tell you it was stellar and nice , you might not get the job (they will come up with some random/generic reason later). In the end the process was not good as seemed fake. It is too long and it is really not clear what the REAL criteria is.
