      Software Engineer Interview

      8 Nov 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience

      Application

      I interviewed at John Hancock

      Interview

      This is for their development program. Few days after submitted an online application, the HR contacted me for an initial Skype interview. I thought it is going to be a regular, conversational interview with HR, but it turned out that the interview is actually with two senior sde. I wasn't prepared for it. Anyway, the interview was behavioral focused, and I thought it went very well. However, they promised to give an a feedback by the following Monday, but didn't do that. After an email inquiry, they told me that they decided not to move forward with my application. I think they rejected me because I questioned their three-years rotational training program. But seriously, three years of training? Doesn't sound good to me. I wonder who want to be in a associative role for three years.

      I interviewed at John Hancock

      Interview

      After the initial phone call with HR I had another phone interview with my manager and it was pretty standard; some technical questions and we went over my background. The last interview was with a current Engineer, and we had a pair programming exercise, overall very straight-forward.
