      IOS Developer Interview

      6 Jan 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at DoorDash in Jan 2022

      Interview

      A one hour Zoom with an iOS developer from DoorDash. I was emailed a zip file containing an Xcode project that contained a README, a JSON sample file, and a struct with a getItemData() function that had three lines of code to load the JSON file from disk. I needed to deserialize the JSON into native Swift objects and then build a UI that displayed the item as specified, including downloading images from URLs. I was able to deserialize the JSON into native Swift objects without issue, but got hung up on creating the UI. Although I have many years of UIKit under my belt, I have been doing SwiftUI for the past few months. When I tried to switch the project to SwiftUI, I first hit a deployment target issue. I changed that to iOS 15 but then forgot how to get SwiftUI into a UIViewController. By that time, I decided to create a new SwiftUI project and just drag the resources into it. Unfortunately, I ran out of time and could not get the UI built. I kind of feel like a lot of these Silicon Valley companies are doing interviews, but not actually hiring. They are all looking for engineers who have memorized what is needed to pass a one hour coding interview. While building a simple native iOS app is an improvement to Leetcode problems, I am not a fan of this timed method of evaluating skillsets.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Consume the data api by deserializing into a native type(s), and use your type(s) to populate a UI as spec'ed.

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at DoorDash (New York, NY)

      Interview

      The first round was a phone screen with a recruiter. I then spoke to an engineering manager. We jumped straight into Xcode, where I was tested on my live iOS coding ability.

      IOS Developer Interview

      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at DoorDash in Aug 2024

      Interview

      Phone initial interview, Leet code, another Leet code, data structure, architecture, culture, management. I think Paypal is a good company to work for but the interview process for iOS developer positions does not make sense. All the interviews that I had were with backend developers that do not know anything about the Swift language and the hiring manager did not know in what part of the interview process I was. The first two LeetCode interviews were a waste of time since they do not prove how good of an iOS developer you are. They need to understand that we are not backend developers, yes it is important to know data structures to make your time complexity fast, but more important than that is ask the candidate to do things related to the job with iOS DEVELOPERS not Java or any other languages. I bet that backend developers would have the same feelings if they had interviews with iOS DEVELOPERS that do not know anything about their languages. Paypal you need to review your interview process ASAP.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Unfortunately I did not have the chance to answer questions related to iOS because it was never asked to me, since the interviewers did not know Swift.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at DoorDash (Midtown New York) in Apr 2024

      Interview

      Interview process was a nightmare. They gave me an Xcode project to open and to work with, with stubbed out methods. I had two interviewers, and when we started they weren't sure who was going to interview me. One person was shadowing the interviewer and they seemed confused as to who was going to be doing what. The interviewer was not helpful and had a really heavy accent, and I had a hard time understanding what he was saying (English is my native language). I had to ask what he was saying 2-3 times because I could not understand him. I finally got the requirements working in about 45 minutes but ran out of time, as they cut off my interview with five minutes to spare. It was also a live coding environment, so you couldn't look anything up including old projects or syntax and I don't think it was a proper test of what the working environment should be. Most of the time was spend trying to understand how the test project was set up and what the interviewer was saying.
