I applied through university. I interviewed at PortaOne (Chernihiv)
Interview
There were two on-site meetings:
The 1st was dedicated to a technical interview at their learning center
The 2nd consisted of 2 parts: a practical task / quiz and an HR interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How to troubleshoot slow performance of your laptop
I applied in-person. I interviewed at PortaOne (Kyiv, Kyiv) in Jun 2021
Interview
I've had a short pre-screening interview with the head of development. There was little-to-no common smalltalk like company presentation or shown interest in my previous experience. Actually, one of the very first things I was asked was about my readiness to lower my salary expectations.
Then there were couple of technical questions about particular command-line tools in Linux and network stack.
Due to the absence of friendliness and respect to the candidate I've declined to proceed further.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PortaOne in Feb 2017
Interview
I had a phone screening. The recruiter without any technical background asked me 20 questions about Linux and general networking. I was surprised she didn't describe me anything about their company or pylosohy.
Even though I pass to the stage I decided not to due this circumstance.
