Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Sprout Social nel mese di gen 2021
Colloquio
Interview process: Phone screen, Coding Assessment, Take home project, 3 hour or so Interview with multiple engineers.
Patchy process. They clearly don't hire on merit, maybe based on your level of wokeness?
Initial coding assessment (with an engineer) is ridiculously easy.
Then they give you a take home assessment (you chose between Java and Python).
They don't review take-home assessment, you just magically pass or don't pass. Other engineers have said there is a solution to it on the web.
The last round is 3 hour or so interview with other engineers of various levels.
Overall the process can be described as
- cargo culting
and
- wokeness through the roof

Great interview process, a bit long with 5 interviews and 2 coding interviews, but questions weren't too bad, and everyone seemed nice and professional. The two coding interviews were with 2/3 other devs and were whiteboarding problems and pseudocoding. I was also given a courtesy email when I wasn't chosen.

Initial recruiter screen went well from my perspective, but apparently not from the company's as I was not moved on to the technical round. Normally not a big deal but the recruiter originally reached out to me so not sure what could have happened.

Went through a technical round with a senior engineer. The questions they asked me were fair, though it probably wasn’t my best performance. That being said, the main thing that irked me was the overall demeanor of the interviewer. They complained about having too many meetings, they mentioned that most of their work consists of putting out fires instead of working on new development, and they just seemed like they really didn’t want to be there. It makes me wonder what’s going on at Sprout if their interviewers can’t even pretend to not hate either their job and/or interviewing a candidate for 1 hour. Also, during the technical interview, I feel like I barely had time to think of my answer before they gave up on me and just gave me the answer and moved on. So I felt rushed.
