      Software Developer Interview

      7 Apr 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Mateo, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (San Mateo, CA)

      Interview

      I contacted them at a job fair at school. They emailed me a coding challenge the next week. The day after I submitted it I received notice to schedule an in-person interview. The next day I was scheduled for the following week. The in-person interview consisted of two hour-long cultural interviews and two 1 1/2 hour long technical interviews. The technical interviews consisted of answering a coding puzzle. They were difficult problems, which I don't expect most people would be able to code a solution for in only an hour. The worst part was that their feedback afterwards was virtually non-existent. I didn't hear anything for nearly two weeks, despite emailing a couple of times, not even confirmation that they received the solutions to the coding challenges. I finally called the recruiter's cell phone to find out what was going on and he called back and said the technical interviews weren't strong enough. Why did it take them 2 weeks to tell me that? I really don't they they would have ever responded if I hadn't called.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The technical interview questions were the paper folding problem and a "juggling" problem. Both were very complicated, and I wasn't able to finish either one in the time allotted. They said I could email them the solutions later, which I did in less than 12 hours after the interview, but apparently it wasn't good enough.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth

      Interview

      Rd1: Recruiter Rd2: HM Interview - 30m Rd3: Coding Interview - 90m Rd4: 2x 90m Coding Interview, 1 Behavioral (Virtual Onsite) To put it in one sentence, Athenahealth’s interview process is significantly flawed and out of touch. Expect 4.5-6 HOURS of rigorous coding round interviews where you must complete fully optimized working solutions.There’s no care for how, or why you solved the problem. Just get every test case passing, and you’ve got a job. It’s clear this company is more keen on hiring a leetcoder, rather than trying to identify real talent. Other than the HM interview, no other opportunities are given to meet your potential coworkers. Expect to hop on a call with a stone wall of an interviewer, and have no intro’s or icebreaker. This was probably the biggest red flag of all. Do better athenahealth..

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth in Mar 2025

      Interview

      I had a 15-minute recruiter phone screen, followed by a scheduled call with the hiring manager. During the call, the hiring manager was dismissive and repeatedly tried to downplay the achievements listed on my résumé. She was rude and kept challenging everything I said, trying to make it seem like my accomplishments were insignificant. I never received any feedback from either the recruiter or the hiring manager, they simply ghosted me. Overall, it was a terrible hiring experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They review your resume in detail and ask many questions about what you did, how you did it, and why, digging into the specifics of your past roles.
