I applied online. I interviewed at MetLife (Raleigh, NC) in Jan 2014
Interview
A HR called and send email for a software developer position. Classic HR questions; information about yourself, why do you want to work at MetLife. How much you were making in your last job etc. Turns out some other outsourced HR calls you back from Infusion. This HR asks similar question just like first HR. Waste of time. HR asks pre-selected scripted question. The questions are not so difficult; however, It questions HR asking technical questions? It seam it does not matter developer skill and experience. It seems Infusion wants to hire their own friends or employees. This location has a very high off-shore [INDIA] component and also a very high attrition as they are in a massive hiring phase to meet the 1,200 employee quota to get their tax benefits from the state and Cary. So they fire first than hire. Hence, massive hiring, no investment in the person they are hiring. Finally, very very low salary for the area.
Don’t waste your time. Look somewhere else with better opportunities.

Question 1

The interview process was very well structured and thoughtfully designed, with two distinct rounds covering behavioral and technical/fit dimensions. The behavioral interview felt conversational yet purposeful, allowing me to clearly articulate my experiences, motivations, and problem-solving approach while still being challenged with follow-up questions that tested depth and self-awareness. The technical/fit interview was equally strong, focusing less on rote problem-solving and more on how I think through systems, tradeoffs, and real-world applications of data science and engineering concepts. I appreciated that the interviewers were engaged and asked relevant, insightful questions that reflected the actual expectations of the program. Overall, the process felt professional, well-organized, and genuinely aligned with the kind of collaborative, applied environment I hope to be part of.
Its was good and able to finish it after 4 round and should know more about health and customer service portal so it will be easy to crack it and get into it.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to translate business requirements into technical logic
The interview process was quick and transparent, the recruiter was great and explained all the steps. The second call was the hiring manager who was also a software engineer. He was very knowledgeable and any questions I didn’t know he made sure to explain what he was looking for. So I left the interview knowing more than when I started. Overall a great experience. I bombed the coding challenge but am better for it.
