      Software Engineer, Backend Interview

      18 Sept 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Paramount (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Recruiter reached out via LinkedIn for a mid-level position. Pay initially discussed was way less for CA standards. 1st technical phone screen. 2nd 2 technical video interviews with managers on hiring team. They asked for questions about technologies like Spring Boot, Java, REST APIs. Know your basics! However after the 2nd round, recruiter reached out saying they want to fill the position with a senior engineer (having 5+ years of Spring experience). The hiring team should be clear on expectations from candidate, their experience based on resume and job description when interviewing as the candidate's time is valuable also.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Spring Boot, REST API, Java related questions (Basics and design related)
