      Database Performance Analyst Interview

      14 Mar 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 7 months. I interviewed at IBM (Austin, TX) in Aug 2015

      Interview

      Two phone screenings and 4.5 hours of on-site technical interviews with pretty much anyone who happened to be in the office that day. No HR contact. No feed back even to reject even after reaching out and asking. 7 months later I'd say it is safe to say there won't be an offer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Role seemed ill-defined. Was asked some high level questions about my experience with databases and a lot about why the role interested me. Interviewers generally asked questions that seemed to be off the top of their heads and related to their own roles. It was a new team and all but still they were so vague on what they were looking for it was a bit unfair! No specific technical database questions - most relevant questions were around your general approach to issues
