No OfferNeutral ExperienceEasy InterviewNew York Times 2017-06-09 13:52 PDTApplication
I applied online. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in May 2017.
Interview
I applied via Linkedin and was contacted by a recruiter who setup a phone round with the hiring team. The phone round was a discussion about my projects and a few easy questions based on my work experience. Then I was invited to an onsite interview at the New York times office. I was interested in meeting the team and the onsite round was overall a good experience. Nothing asked was particularly too difficult, mostly database schema related questions and was asked just one algorithm question. The onsite interview was scheduled for 3 hours and was pretty straightforward and a few questions from interviewers overlapped and felt a little disorganized.
After the onsite, there was a take home coding test with vague specifications. I was given a JSON related question and was rejected based on the coding test. The feedback felt a highly nit picked and was contradictory to the assumptions stated in the question. This was a complete waste of my time . I already had another offer in hand and attended the interview because I committed to the recruiter.Interview Questions
- One algorithm question based on comparing two sorted lists.
Take home test based related to comparing JSON data from two files. Answer Question
