      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      6 Sept 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at OwnLocal (Austin, TX) in Apr 2016

      Interview

      Initial phone screen, coding challenge, then in person interview and coding challenge. Before my interview, I felt like I was the smartest person on the bus, but after the interview with OwnLocal, I realized my previous jobs were on the the short bus. These people are very smart. The coding challenge seems easy, but the on site portion is MUCH more difficult. They say you don't need to know ruby or go. Don't try to learn them for the coding challenge. Use a language you know well. Process was slow with several weeks between communication. The most negative part was lack of reimbursement for travel. I never received a No, but my emails around that subject were ignored.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      After the coding challenge, you are interviewed by all of the engineers, and questions varied from coding to database to systems administration.
