      Manager, Applications Development Team Interview

      12 Aug 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at KIPP Schools in Aug 2014

      Interview

      I was originally contacted by a recruiter who found my profile online and thought I would be a good fit for this role. I was invited for an in person interview with the Director of IT from Kipp onsite at the recruiting office. The interview was kept to 30 minutes only. I was asked questions pertaining to people management and my background and experience. Very standard. The following day (Thursday afternoon), the recruiter said that I advanced to the next round and that they wanted me to interview with the team and sent me "homework" exercises to do by Monday. It was time consuming and had to finish it by the weekend. I sent my answers Monday morning and was contacted Tuesday that they were not moving forward. I felt a bit jaded since I did not receive any feedback on the homework even though my answers were very detailed. For a non profit org, they seem very corporate and management heavy.

      Question 1

      Our Research and Evaluation team has requested that we develop a web-based system of your choosing that captures information about student performance on standardized tests. The system should be able to capture information about the test, subject, school, teacher, student and score, so that the following data can be viewed:  A teacher can review data for their class: o Average test score by subject, by date, by grade o Comparison of average test scores for students between tests (e.g. how the class performed in Fall vs. Spring for a particular subject) o Comparison of an individual student scores between tests (e.g. how a specific student’s scores changes between Fall and Spring)  A school can review data for their school: o A roll up of above metrics by date and subject at teacher, grade or enter school level  KIPP Foundation staff can review data for the entire network of schools: o A roll up of above metrics by date and subject at school level Part 1: Propose a design for this system. Please include the following:  Database design: identify the tables and relationship for the relational database, describe the data to be stored in each table  Application architecture: describe the layers and components of each layer (e.g. identify the most important classes), identify the technologies to be used Part 2: Create a high level project plan identifying the major milestones, dependencies, and resources
