Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Typical managerial questions- ex. tell me about a time someone was underperforming and how did you manage it?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Handshake (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2020
Interview
The first interview was a phone call with the recruiter. We talked about the company, culture, and values. He also explained to me perfectly the process for the interview.
After that, I had a technical screening (coding exercise) with a senior software engineer from the team who explained to me in detail what he was expecting from me.
The last step was on-site. They gave me the possibility to do it remotely but I preferred to go to the office. I had several interviews that day mainly focused on systems design, management, product, experience, and cultural fit. I had the opportunity to have lunch with some amazing Engineering Managers from other teams who kindly explained to me how they were working.
I really enjoyed the process!
