      Senior Front End Engineer Interview

      May 13, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Jose, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Yahoo (San Jose, CA) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      Interview was conducted over hangouts. It happened few minutes past the scheduled time. But, there was a problem with the hangouts link. After trying for several minutes the interview had to be rescheduled. Next time, the link worked. There were a couple of exercises and I had to clone two github repositories. I didn't have much difficulty doing the exercises and was even commended by the interview. But, after the interview was done I didn't hear back for days and when I followed up, I wasn't selected. It turned out I didn't do one of the exercises well which came as a surprise because the interviewer accepted my answers. When I checked the exercise again, I found that the interviewer didn't go over all the questions in the exercise and didn't let me solve beyond that. This usually happens if I didn't do the previous exercise. But, I did well on the previous exercise. It was shocking.
