      Senior Systems Engineer Interview

      10 Mar 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Philadelphia, PA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Linode (Philadelphia, PA) in Mar 2021

      Interview

      After applying I did a brief (~30 minute) call with a pre-screen/recruiter to do a little bit of a "What's your experience with X?" talk. This was fine and short, but most of it was already detailed on my application/resume. About a week later I had a 1.5 hour video-interview with two people from the department/team I was interviewing for. The interview basically was me regurgitating my resume to them and them inquiring about projects I had already completed for previous employers. The interview never really got into discussion about what the job role was expecting of me and I had received no questions that were specific about any technologies. I am not sure how they intended to judge or decipher whether or not I was a fit for the role based upon their questions/line of interviewing.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Can you explain how you did (thing-from-resume/previous employer)?
