I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Prudential (New York, NY) in Jan 2021
Interview
4 rounds of interview that were conducted on different times over a period of two weeks. Each of the interview was conducted to test different aspects of software engineering and my experience and competency in each.
There were three interview rounds plus a hacker rank assessment. The first round was with HR, the second round was with the team lead and the third round was the team lead and some of the team.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you had to learn a new technology quickly?
Was given a phone screening on zoom where interviewer had camera off. Afterwards I was sent a link to complete a coding assessment online. This was done using Hacker rank.
The interview will mostly focus on behavioral questions, which are designed to get a sense of how you’ve handled different situations in the past. They’ll ask you about specific moments in your career where you’ve had to navigate challenges, work with a team, or make decisions under pressure. These kinds of questions help interviewers understand how you approach problem-solving and whether your approach will work in the role you’re applying for.
