Splunk Principal Software Engineer interview questions

Meghan was the Technical Recruiter and Daniel was the coordinator. Both were great in setting things up. Meghan was really responsive and manage to arrange the offer in a record time after the team said that they want me to join. I had other competing offers from other companies (one of them FAANG) but Meghan and the technical staff convinced me that Splunk would be the right choice. The interviewers were really calm and friendly during the interview and gave me a really good vibe about working with them in the future. All the interviewers were seasoned engineers and one Senior manager and made really good professional AND personal impression on me, They seemed cooperative, knowledgeable and easy to work with. The senior manager who interviewed me was nice and asked really good professional questions regarding my background as well. I can't wait starting working there!

Interview process was standard, 1hr phone screen followed by onsite. I was initially skeptical when I read glassdoor reviews.. but almost all of them are true about recruiter ghosting! Their recruitment process is extremely broken. Recruiter would not respond to your email post onsite for a month. If you manage to get hold of him over phone, he would promise to call you before 5 pm back with the update .. and ghost you again for a week. In my case recruiter called me after my onsite to tell me that he would like to invite me onsite... really? Can you at least check your records properly before calling a candidate? I have been given time and kept stranded for a call by this recruiter!! Anyways.. after you have made sure that onsite has gone nicely and you have not done any mistakes, code written to completion, recruiter called me to tell me that they are still looking.. and could not tell me anything why I was passed.. From the kind of answers he gave I was able to figure out that they themselves dont know what the expectation is. DO NOT waste time, money and energy with people like these who do not value their word/ your time!
