      Software Engineering Intern Interview

      19 Nov 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Groupon

      Interview

      The first round was about a 30 minute phone interview with general questions asking about my past work experience, why I wanted to work at Groupon, and what type of work I was interested in. They also gave me an opportunity to ask questions about the company and position at the end of the interview. After finding out my skill-set and preferences during the interview, they talked about possible teams and locations where they thought I would fit best in, and told me that they'd contact me soon to schedule a second interview. The second round was another 30 minute phone interview. They asked almost the exact same questions as the first interview, with a couple new ones added on like what my biggest challenge was and how I solved it. They did not ask me a single technical/programming/problem-solving question either, which I was pretty surprised with. I asked about salary during this interview and was told I would be sent the details by someone soon after, which I never received. Overall, it felt like the other side didn't have nearly as much interest in the interview as I did. I pretty much had two HR interviews and I wasn't asked any behavioural or technical questions. They were respectful the whole time, but it was almost as if they had already decided on who to hire before the interviews started.
