Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso UKG (Lowell, MA) nel mese di nov 2019
Colloquio
I was referred by a current employee. I was contacted about 2 hours later (very fast), for an initial phone screen of ~25 minutes with a remote, internal HR recruiter for kronos/UKG. A day later, I was contacted by the same recruiter to set up the face to face which occurred the following week. I was greeted by a local HR rep, who gave me a short, onsite tour of a couple of common spaces, and then escorted to a conference room for a single, afternoon long set of face to face technical interviews with the hiring manager and 4 team engineers. Each session lasted a 1/2 hour. The entire thing lasted about 4 hours. Long, but not unusually so, and pretty standard. I did notice and respect that everyone was prompt. It was quite professionally handled.

Colloquio
Online coding assessment on random algorithm and data structure questions. Then in person interview with basic html and sql questions, followed up by a white board coding interview. Problem was on the easy side. Function that receives two lists and returns the max between the two

Domanda 1
What is a tag in html. What is a left join in sql. Then technical discussion about the specific role
Overall the interview wasn't that much tough, you should know the basics of java and spring boot and Java memory management and it should be enough and in the end interviewer also asked some aptitude based questions.

Colloquio
Applied via a UKG recruiter. The process started with an online assessment that included 2 coding questions and 1 SQL problem. After completing that, I had a recruiter screening. The recruiter emphasized that their hiring process was “META-level” and that they bring on FAANG-level engineers. However, the salary offered was extremely low—honestly, even interns at big tech companies get paid more.
After the screening, I followed up but received no responses and was eventually ghosted. About a month later, I got an automated rejection email.
Overall, a very disappointing experience: lengthy process, unrealistic bragging, poor compensation, and lack of professionalism in communication.
