      Software Engineer Interview

      27 Jul 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at AppFolio

      Interview

      Applied online for the available position and the recruiter reached out to get more information about my background and scheduled a technical screening with an engineer. The Technical screening was horrible. The interviewer kept joining in and out of the call due to connection issues, had constant background sounds and was unresponsive to questions I asked. Also, he kept looking down at his phone throughout the interview. There were no preliminary questions asked, the interviewer jumped straight into a coding question. After 30 minutes, he said the equivalent of "time's up" and moved on to a design problem. At this point another interviewer had jumped onto the call randomly. In another 10 min, the first interviewer said that he was having technical difficulties with the call and dropped off. Spent the rest of the interview speaking with the other interviewer which was a much more pleasant experience. The first interviewer (the hiring manager) was a very rude person. I feel like I dodged a bullet because he would have made a pretty horrible boss.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at AppFolio in Nov 2025

      Interview

      Screening call with the recruiter, then moved to a 75-minute technical interview with another software engineer and a manager. That involved System design and coding problems. After that, you moved to a final behavioural interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Behavioural question involved a complex problem you solved. Rapid-fire system design questions ranging from scalability to performance. The coding interview involves removing duplicates from a string of messages.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio (San Diego, CA)

      Interview

      The interview process consisted of several rounds of technical and behavioral interviews. The technical interviews consisted of fairly simple questions which tested your basic ability to code, problem solve, and explain your thought process clearly. The behavioral interviews consisted of typical team-oriented behavioral questions that allow the candidate to showcase their experience and show personality.

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time where you were working on a team and had disagreements with other team members. How did you approach the situation and what was the result?
