      Python Software Developer Interview

      24 Aug 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Dublin, Dublin
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Hamilton Group (Dublin, Dublin) in Aug 2020

      Interview

      Video call with two engineers, Codility test, video call with Head of IT and Engineering, video call with CTO. Neither the Glassdoor nor the original job specs specify any sort of SQL. In fact, the only specific database they mention is Redis. Nor was SQL brought up during the initial discussion with the engineers. Bizarre, then, that 40% of the Codility test was SQL. Disrespectful of everyone's time.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      Given an array of integers, return the number of fragments which sum to 0.
      Answer question

      Question 2

      A variant of fizzbuzz with three words.
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Two SQL questions (Postgres or SQLite only, no MySQL). You'd need to know how to sum columns, reference foreign keys, do joins etc.
      Answer question

      Question 4

      A variant of 'here's some code that returns the integer in an array that has the most occurrences'. It has a bug and it returns correct output sometimes, other times not. We won't tell you what input will break it, but you have to fix the bug anyway. Pretty unrealistic as bug reports with no information to facilitate reproduction shouldn't be entertained.
