      Technology Leadership Program - Software Engineer Interview

      22 Nov 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Minneapolis, MN
      Declined offer
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Minneapolis, MN) in Oct 2019

      Interview

      Phone screen - basic STAR questions Final round onsite interview - Full day affair, two ~45 minute interviews, difficulty completely dependent on the interviewer. My first interviewer asked me to design a class to fit a specification and include a few methods to do various things. My second interviewer asked me questions that no entry level software engineer would know. Things like maximizing uptime of an API using backup servers, how specific web browsers interact with HTML and their requirements, etc.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you were in charge of an API used by others, how would you ensure it would always stay up?

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Target (Minneapolis, MN) in Nov 2016

      Interview

      It started with a on-campus behavioral interview. This was followed by an online coding challenge that was 7 or 8 questions long. Finally, there was an on-site interview in Minneapolis with two half hour behavioral interviews. The interviews were with team managers, and they told me that the content depends a lot on the particular interviewer. Generally they don't have technical interviews unless they are uncertain in your skills.
