Question 1
What drew me to apply to this position, and to describe some of my projects.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salsify (Boston, MA)
Interview
Included a 20-30 minute call with an internal HR recruiter who was very helpful. The recruiter was very clear about the upcoming interview process, salary opportunities, and could give insight into the role. Salary would be 120,000-130,000 with benefits and the final number of the salary being decided based on skill identified from the interviews.
Second round included a 30 minute phone call with the team manager who would be an engineer working on the team. The call included a question on how to set up an API. Overall the phone call was conversational and easy going.
The final round interview included meeting for 3 hours on-site with the product manager of the team, 2 engineers from another team, 2 engineers from another team, the team manager (from the second call), and the internal HR recruiter. The portion with the product manager was very conversational and a lot about the project for the role. The next portion with 2 engineers included a question about how to develop a web crawler to check the health of a website. The following portion included a question about how to develop a multi player game.
Overall the interview process was very fair. The HR recruiter met last with me and was focused on how feedback about the interview process. The recruiter also asked for feedback when informing the team was moving forward with another candidate. Finally the recruiter even offered to refer me to another company that Salsify trades candidates with. Very professional company that seems like it would be great to work for.
