      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Checkmarx in Feb 2019

      Interview

      The interview process was very straight forward, structured and quick. A recruiter reached out to me first, then a technical screening call, then a technical assessment (I had to do a presentation), and then a face-to-face with the hiring manager. Everyone was very friendly, professional and honest.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      There was some questions surrounding application security vulnerabilities (SQL Injection, XSS, etc)
      Answer question

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Checkmarx

      Interview

      Initial call with HR Representative was asked for salary range which I provided and she said 'perfect we are in the exact same range'. Had an initial conversational interview with the hiring manager, and then a technical interview with the hiring manager and the entire team I would be placed with. This interview seemed to go really well and I was told I would be contacted shortly. After two weeks, I had an offer from another company, I called the HR representative to check what was going on. On this call she told me that she had not heard anything and then asked 'oh by the way did I tell you that we are actually not in the same range on the pay?' After this call, I never heard back, no explanation, nothing. Completely unprofessional and I will not be considering a position here in the future after having so much of my time wasted.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions about SQL Injection asked to write a script to count lines of code and a customer service-oriented question.
