      Software Engineer II Interview

      May 1, 2024
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at AppFolio

      Interview

      I had a recruiter call which was amazing - I loved the recruiter I spoke to - Amber. Then I had a round one technical interview that I was told was going to be more practical than anything with many live coding questions in one hour. I thought I did really good based on the vibes, the manager seemed to really like me and seemed impressed with my responses - then I heard back that they wouldn't want to move forward with me for that position but rather wanted me to interview for a different position on a team I wasn't interested in really at a Software Engineer I level. This was honestly offensive to me, as I have the years of experience to be a Software Engineer I and was not given any feedback. I asked for feedback from the manager of the next interview and the recruiter and was not given any. The next interview I did with the other team I didn't like the job responsibilities at all as it was more backend and I am a frontend focused developer. I didn't put my all into it because I knew I didn't even want the position but it was another hour of live coding algorithms questions. Got the rejection back the next day.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AppFolio

      Interview

      I went through a pretty long process took longer than usual was about 5 months long, due to scheduling and the process going through December which admittedly makes it awkward cause it creates the problem of people being on PTO, initial screening, two technical interviews, one design interview, then a more behavioral interview, finally an interview with a hiring manager.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Design something related to the company, but very barebones and simple, they basically take the idea of something they solved in the past and narrow it down as a problem for you to solve, which imo is a great way to interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio in Jul 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was super polished and seamless. The process was: Initial recruiter phone screen -> 30-min talk with Director of Engineering -> 1-hr Technical Ruby on Rails interview -> Three 1-hr technical interviews (front and back-end). They really stress the importance of clean code, so be sure to brush up on best practices and discuss improvements that can be made. It was such a pleasure to meet everyone on the team and throughout the entire process, I could easily tell how positive the environment within the team is! Everyone was receptive to feedback and considerate about any issues we faced (coding platform issues, etc.). I have to give a big shoutout to my recruiter, Evan, who is easily one of the most kind and compassionate recruiters I've interacted with!
