      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      25 Jan 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Miami, FL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Later (Miami, FL) in Jan 2023

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me via LinkedIn. We scheduled a call to go over experience, salary requirements. Next step was to speak with someone on the engineering team. There was not a lot of information provided on what to expect. I found the interview to be more contentious in a way that felt like the interviewer was not considering me in good faith. I wouldn’t call it a resume/technical deep dive because I didn’t get to introduce myself and explain my goals on a high level without being called out for being generic. As someone who hadn’t heard about the company until I was approached that was a big red flag in regards to culture. The rest of the interview continued in that vein as I didn’t get to go in depth about my experience without the interviewer interrupting with questions about basic processes. It caught me off guard and I felt I didn’t get a chance to give an accurate representation of my career or my goals.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      8 May 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Later in May 2026

      Interview

      Initial phone interview with recruiter, Second Interview on video call. Seemed fine, got sent a take that references instructions for broken or out of date repositories to pull docker images, in order to execute against. Reached out to the point person about the issue and was told proceed anyway. Unprofessional at best, and a strange psychological test at worst. I wouldn't recommend.

      Senior Software Developer Interview

      17 Feb 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Later in Feb 2022

      Interview

      - Initial call with an in-house recruiter - Take home assignment - 2 follow up technical interviews The recruiter was very friendly and the take home assignment was an appropriate length. However, some of the people that conducted the interviews didn't understand the technical topics they were interviewing about. It's expected to challenge and prod at answers given by a candidate to gauge their level of knowledge, but when the people conducting the interview don't understand the topic then they should move onto one they do know. When other senior developers and future coworkers don't understand the subjects they are hiring for it becomes a bit of a red flag.

      Interview questions [1]
