Can you briefly describe the interview process for developers in your country ?

Crappy

@devTea and you are from?

@anoosher indonesia

Here its same. They dont evaluate your capability of coding logical thinking rather than asking SOLID Principles and other theories we remembering by hard . Thats creepy

1st question of HR: what is your desired salary?

Lately, interviews I've attended have been meandering conversations interspersed with sudden whiteboarding sessions consisting of extremely stupid questions and/or "challenges." I've found I needed to lead the interviews myself to discover actually-useful information concerning the companies.

Summary: trendy interviewing approaches that still don't help because people suck at interviewing.

Summarized summary: mostly-enjoyable crap.

Summary's final form: crap.

Can't bother to explain 😅 Though when you tag a post you simply comma separate the words. No need for hashtags. Also, from the algos point of view I think it gives posts with images a lower rating. Welcome!

@ScriptCoded thank you for your precious comments

Worked at three companies in Netherlands. First question was what I wanted to earn and then a comfortable 30 minutes of having fun, getting to know each other and joking a lot. Maybe I'm lucky or maybe it's the insane shortage of qualified people, but I don't mind.

@Lucky-Loek interesting

Surpirseeeee we're ganna give you a test to do (which is really a problem we can't solve in production).

I went through a tough interview for the job I'm in right now. After the phone screen they invited me to an onsite meeting and 8 people interviewed me including VP of engineering, director or engineering, senior director of product testing and some other development managers, leads and HR. There was a question paper that I had to answer. It took 5-6 hours. They asked me all kinds of questions. Fundamentals, .net core, javascript, sql server, react, docker and Azure. I went home after the interview and had a nap. Woke up to a call from the recruiter saying they wanted to offer me a position. After negotiations, I accepted it. Now I'm working there. 😊

@KAS89 that seems intense. Sounds like US, am i right?

@nARs yep. That's correct

@KAS89 thank you fir sharing your experience

@Lucky-Loek

Here in Germany it's more common to be the last question

just before saying goodbye it's like

oh we nearly forgot ... what do we need to offer you to welcome you on board?

I can't summarize the entire United States, as there are just too many variations. But I can say that in our interviews, we ask a candidate what he or she has done with whatever language, and what praise or complaints they have about said language. We look for enthusiasm, not a "prove it!" session.

All of the job interviews I have attended here in Denmark when like this:

Get it. There are usually 1-2 people. At least one of them is a developer. We greet each other, and then they start introducing the company. What are they doing, and what will me role become.

Then I introduce myself, who am I, what have I done, what are my professional interests.

Then the conversation becomes a bit more casual, talking about each other’s personal interests and stuff.

Then we get to the final questions where I ask them about the workplace, and they probably ask me about how I like to work, what am I good at/bad at.

Then you go home. If they liked you from the interview, they might send you an assignment which you probably have a day or two to complete. This is the code test, and you will make it at home. It shows your ability to work by yourself, and your architectural skills.

That’s my experience at least.

@devs i also had such interviews here in Sri Lanka. Normally this structure is followed by foreign companies (mostly european ) who have development centres here
