Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso PlayStation (Aliso Viejo, CA) nel mese di feb 2019
Colloquio
The first interview was over the phone with a panel of engineers from different teams. I applied from a backend position but the panel thought I would be a better fit for an infrastructure team.
The onsite interview was a standard all day interview with different groups of people. It seemed like at least two of the interviews were not planned, so I just spent the full hour chatting with the panel. The other two interviews were on systems design and networking. The questions were average.
The next day the recruiter reached out saying that the interviews went very well and that the executive team was deciding what position would be best for my profile. A week later got an email saying something similar that the execs were still deciding. Finally, I reached out to the recruiter after 3 weeks since the onsite interview. She didn't reply.

Colloquio
Typically, an interviewer asks around 6–12 core technical questions, plus 3–5 behavioral questions for this role. In system-heavy roles like this, expect deep follow-ups, so total discussion often expands to 15–20 question threads rather than standalone questions.

Colloquio
Gauntlet of 6+ interviews. Multiple tech screenings and system designs. Poorly coordinated. Recruiter uninterested and unresponsive in general, didn't follow up on my questions and got ghosted at the end. One of the interviewers had poor communication skills and it was the most painful interview I had ever had in my career.
The interviewing process is straightforward. first resume screen, then phone screen, then one tech interview with manager, Then there's the final round panel interview with behavior questions. . . . . .
