      Software Engineer II Interview

      6 Apr 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio in Apr 2023

      Interview

      Let me first say that I very much liked this company's culture and the people that I spoke with. That said, the company was inconsiderate with my time and left me feeling very confused and frustrated with the outcome of the process. After a 30min phone screen with a recruiter, a 30min zoom with an engineering manager, and two 1-hour phone screens (both of which I passed) - I received a generic canned response that they would not be moving forward with my application. Primarily, I'm frustrated with their lack of communication about where my application/skillset was lacking. I reached out to a recruiter for feedback about how I could strengthen my skillset and improve for future applications. They responded by rattling off everything that I did well in the interview and giving a vague suggestion that my skillset didn't match what the company needs right now. If your company is going to have candidates invest hours of interview prep, pass your technical interviews, exert effort in getting to the know the company and the people who work at it, please do us the courtesy of treating us like human beings.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AppFolio

      Interview

      I went through a pretty long process took longer than usual was about 5 months long, due to scheduling and the process going through December which admittedly makes it awkward cause it creates the problem of people being on PTO, initial screening, two technical interviews, one design interview, then a more behavioral interview, finally an interview with a hiring manager.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Design something related to the company, but very barebones and simple, they basically take the idea of something they solved in the past and narrow it down as a problem for you to solve, which imo is a great way to interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio in Jul 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was super polished and seamless. The process was: Initial recruiter phone screen -> 30-min talk with Director of Engineering -> 1-hr Technical Ruby on Rails interview -> Three 1-hr technical interviews (front and back-end). They really stress the importance of clean code, so be sure to brush up on best practices and discuss improvements that can be made. It was such a pleasure to meet everyone on the team and throughout the entire process, I could easily tell how positive the environment within the team is! Everyone was receptive to feedback and considerate about any issues we faced (coding platform issues, etc.). I have to give a big shoutout to my recruiter, Evan, who is easily one of the most kind and compassionate recruiters I've interacted with!
