      Back End Engineer Interview

      29 July 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Yaqum
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Pendo (Yaqum)

      Interview

      Got a phone call from one of their contacts to schedule the first interview. The contact gave a bad first impression of the company by sounding apathetic and disinterested in speaking with me. In the screening interview that followed everything went well technically, but again the interviewer seemed rather disinterested and detached. After I passed it, the contact didn't even bother calling and scheduled an on-site interview via email. I was then interviewed by another person who was generally unfriendly, seemed like he was trying to rush the interview, and seemed to place great emphasis on personal projects and former experience which I had little to none being a Junior (Which, if they're so important, he could have asked about during the first interview or on the phone). By that point his body language gave away that he was not going to hire me. He barely looked at me and cut me in the middle while I was speaking, asking me to explain things that are mostly knowledge based/gained from experience and less technical/thinking-skills based, and seemed critical of every minor fault in the answer, while giving no positive feedback or guidance - only negative. It was a barrage of questions, one after another, as if interrogating me to try and trip me on one of the questions, without even waiting for the full solution. I asked to leave in the middle of the interview, and do not regret it, especially given his response to this request. Please spare yourself the time and negative emotions and skip this place. If this is how they treat potential employees, imagine how they treat actual employees. Maybe that's why they all seemed so rude and depressed.

      Back End Engineer Interview

      17 June 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Raleigh, NC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Pendo (Raleigh, NC) in May 2021

      Interview

      This was a very positive experience. It was a four step process: a recruiter phone conversation, a chat with a hiring manager, a multi-stage "virtual onsite" meeting with several people including a few technical challenges, and finally a discussion with several top executives. The technical challenges were language-agnostic and not overly difficult, with a much greater focus on communication and thought process than on coding with perfect syntax. The process moved quite quickly and I received feedback and updates every step of the way.
