Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso The Trade Desk (Sydney) nel mese di ott 2025
Colloquio
I applied for a SDE position in Sydney AU. Online accessed + recruiter call + 4 rounds onsite rounds. The recruiter was super efficient and professional, some interviewers were very professional and friendly, however, the hiring manager had astonishingly bad manners, he gave an ambiguous and topic and didn’t collaborate or specify what aspects to focus on, as I continued to seek clarification, he became visibly frustrated and started yelling. Would recommend the company to improve the mental maturity of this hiring manager from HK before allowing him to become an interviewer again. The hiring manager's terrible manner explains why the same job has been posted again and again on Linkedin but never been filled over the last 2 months.
60 mins - Algorithm questions. it was generally leetcode med level algorithm questions and they asked 2 questions. They were kind of rushing the interview and didn't seem like they cared about the interview.
