Autodesk Software Test Engineer interview questions

What started out as a great interviewing process turned into a whack experience. Let me lay out what happened: Applied online - contacted by recruiter - scheduled screening interview - completed basic HR screen - scheduled hiring manager screen - completed basic hiring manager screen - was told that a technical interview was coming. This is where things get wishy washy. I was told by the hiring manager that a technical interview was “definitely” coming and then a complete 180 happened. Completely ghosted me in every regard. Things were going so well and then a complete halt happened. Well this is where things get interesting. I saw on Zip Recruiter that a Test Engineer position opened up as contract. I reached out to the contract company and confirmed that the Autodesk job did in fact move to contract. Then the position on Workday was changed from Software Test Engineer to just Software Engineer. Even though the position calls for mostly test. I’m a MSME and this was just weird behavior to say the least. I’m not sure what happened or why it happened, I guess it’s just business!

Some interviewers were interested to test me in their expertise but not mine and they were from different engineering background. It felt like these interviewers were there to bail me out only. They were asking for too much for a tester role. It looked I Autodesk has very good work environment but some international interviewers were rude. Applied as a MSME graduate, interviewed by lot of CS people.
