      Software Engineer II Interview

      12 May 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Needham, MA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Needham, MA) in Apr 2022

      Interview

      Applied online, had a conversation with British team and then waiting for HR from Mass team to schedule hiring manager round. This is where it all started, the guy from HR team just automatically sent you schedule links without giving you any information. I didn't even know if this is an HR talk or Hiring Manager interview. Followed up with HR 3 times in 10 days and got no responses at all. I finally had to schedule on that system and wait for another week for HR to confirm. During that week, I followed with 2 more emails and still no response. After the interview, the HR is gone. It feels like the HR team who works on your case is robot, they won't even talk to you or reply your emails. This is the most frustrated interview experience I've ever had.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      A/B test question with OOP design.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience with the recruiting team. I apologize you never received a follow-up email or call after submitting your availability and interview with the hiring manager. We strive to respond to each of our candidates in a timely manner, and it appears this was not the case. Although this does not change your experience, your concerns have been heard.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Tripadvisor (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      Recusada em menos de 24 horas, sem qualquer feedback. O email era no-reply, sem ninguém dos recursos humanos atribuído. O processo foi extremamente impessoal e claramente avaliado por Inteligência Artificial, sem consideração humana.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tripadvisor in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Had an HR interview, then a tech interview. Although the role focused on frontend, the technical interview was heavily backend-oriented, which felt unexpected and misaligned with the job description and expectations.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Data structures, object oriented concepts, and SQL.
