Easy interview

Application

I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at TrueCar (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2020

Interview

Interview cancelled last minute by the company. I initially went through TripleByte. They had some reorg and decided to cancel the role entirely. Wasted my time in preparation. I guess it happens ... I was just using the interview for practice.

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

There were no questions asked.

1 Answer

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TrueCar in Aug 2022

Interview

I thought the interview process was very practical. There was a general technical interview and 2 technical interviews where we did live programming. I think the problem set was pretty realistic and it was really enjoyable working with the team members on them.

Average interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at TrueCar in Feb 2022

Interview

The most awkward process I ever seen. Rude guy. Asked for my current salary information many times, even though I told him I dont wanna say it, just to low ball me and he threatened me that they gonna do a salary history check, which is ILEGAL!

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

Asked about experience and how do I rate my skills from 0 to 10.

Answer question

TrueCar response

Our team never asks for current compensation for a variety of reasons, but outside of legality, it's irrelevant in our decision-making. What we are concerned with is what your compensation needs are in a new role - we want to be certain not to waste candidate or hiring team time if your ask is outside of our scoped range.
