      C++ Graduate Software Developer Interview

      30 Jul 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Amsterdam
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Flow Traders (Amsterdam) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      Long winded process that requires multiple steps, including a verbal interview with HR, a fast paced intelligence test, a coding challenge (of which the questions are vague at best) with a follow up interview with developers. I reached this stage with relative ease, however the developers I was interviewed by did not seem interested in getting to know me as a person, or asking me much about my solutions and how I came up with them. They instead chose to focus on textbook questions with pedantic answers. They did not appear professional, weren't professionally dressed and appeared to condescend me. I felt severely dejected after this interview and was given no feedback despite promises of HR getting back to me. I feel that if you are going to ask someone in depth questions that you will only find in textbooks, then you should indicate the level of questioning in an interview, as I was told that the interview would be specifically about the coding challenge.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What are the respective costs of C++ programming commands on a CPU in detail? Which is faster and explain how/why they are faster (standard library)?

      Graduate C++ Software Engineer Interview

      24 Jan 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Flow Traders

      Interview

      I applied for the Graduate Software Engineering program. The process is structured in the following steps: 1. Resume check 2. Online coding test (very many multiple-choice questions, related to C++ pitfalls such as move semantics, templates etc.) 3. A talk with the recruiter regarding your application and what you know about the company 4. A take-home C++ project. (If you are a modern C++ fan, you will LOVE this assignment.) 5. An online interview with two developers where you discuss your approach used in the take-home project. That is where the application ended for me. The next step would have probably been an onsite interview in the Amsterdam office. All I can say is that of all the people in the company, the recruiter was the most pleasant during the application process ;)
