I applied online. I interviewed at Clever Devices in July 2018
Interview
Submitted an online application, had an initial screening call followed by a technical phone interview. Had I gone further there would have been an in person interview with their management.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked about internship experience, college classes, OOP, etc.
There was several parts to this interview process, from the email to final interview.
Email to first phone call: I was emailed to ask for my availability for a phone screen, but I had email the recruiter again after the recruiter hadn't replied for a couple of days - post my response- and the weekend doesn't count.
First phone call : Normal questions about my experience and the technologies they're asking.
What I found off-putting is that they said I needed to complete aa Hackerrank test within 3 weeks, or if I needed an extension more than 3 weeks. It would seem the company wasn't so urgent about hiring.
Hackerrank test: I found the questions on Glassdoor interviews.
Manager of Engineering: Late to call me, but just went over my experience and affirmed me to move forward.
FInal Interview( 3 Developers + 1 VP of Engineering):
Questions primarily about Java, stuff on my resume( projects and experience and whatnot).
After the final interview: HR keeps delaying the time for a final decision, from 3 days to the beginning of next week to next interview with their other candidate, all whilst saying I am not too strong of an candidate.
It has been 3 weeks since the final interview. HR says the team is looking for other suitable candidates.

Question 1
Questions about Java and OOJ/OOP, questions about my
experience in projects and work experience, and behavioral questions.
Thank you for your comments. I apologize if you feel our process did not proceed as quickly as you would have hoped. We take great pride in our Associate program, which focuses on recent college grads, and do have a thorough interview process. With the high volume of applicants we get each year for this program, it can take a few weeks to finish the interview cycle, however the results we have experienced make this timing well worth it.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Clever Devices (New York, NY)
Interview
You’re required to do a HackerRank. Even getting everything perfect and 100%, you will most likely not get a call back, feedback or anything. Don’t wait up for this company to respond unless you know someone that works there.
