      Technical Support Engineer Interview

      17 Jan 2025
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at MongoDB in Sept 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was quite long—three months, actually—but this was mostly because, in my previous job, I didn’t have much time to spare for interviews, so I scheduled them across different weeks. That said, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-organized the process was. The recruiter, Sean O'Kennedy, was incredibly kind and helpful. He guided me through the entire process and provided excellent advice to prepare for the technical interviews. I’ll always be super grateful to him because I’m now loving the culture and values of MongoDB, and it was he who first reached out to me. Additionally, all the interviewers were exceptionally kind and respectful. At no point did I feel like they were looking down on me—quite the opposite! Finally, having the opportunity to be interviewed in person by Adam Schwartz, the TSE head, at MongoDB’s office in Barcelona was an amazing experience. I felt comfortable the entire time, which allowed me to perform at my best. Overall, the interview process was flawless!

      I interviewed at MongoDB

      Interview

      Interviewer was late, not prepared, and ate during the interview! It was a surprise as this was after the first few rounds. All the other interviewers were very professional except one who unfortunately was maybe the decision maker. I know because the round stopped there

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at MongoDB

      Interview

      Interminable. The interview process is fully mapped out on their website. Nevertheless, it does go on and on. Too many questions related to skills that I already had that I would never get to use as a TSE

      How would address a database performance problem?
