      Senior Software Developer Interview

      Jul 23, 2024
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Kitchener, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sonova (Kitchener, ON) in Jul 2024

      Interview

      Contacted by an excellent external recruiter, discuss my CV and expectations, after a week or so. Recruiter came back asking if I would like to continue to the next process (an online test). The online problem was easy, whoever they purposely over-complicate it with a poorly designed base code.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1 hour limit online test with a long question and a long base start code (full of errors and overhead). Instructions indicated that you are free to fully change provided code. Except for Main function. This is NOT true, and they should update their instructions, they want you to use poorly base code as a start point but provided instructions say otherwise. Instructions are misleading, and given time to understand the problem and poorly designed base code, 1 hour is NOT realistic. I guess hiring team wants to over complicate the hiring process and favor job security or use this as an excuse to get more benefits? My research suggested that Sonova is a great company, I was truly shocked by this.
