      Entry Level Software Developer Interview

      Apr 29, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Malvern, PA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard (Malvern, PA) in Apr 2019

      Interview

      Met with recruiter at HirePhiladelphia, which allows university alumnus to network and potentially apply for jobs. Recruiter told me all about the company and I was highly impressed. Now, I did warn the recruiter that I'm a .Net guy and write code with C#, which recruiter replied that it's totally fine and I should go ahead and apply....I TOTALLY shouldn't of. 1 st - fill out an application 2 - company sends you HackRank assessment, which for a entry level is definitely not an easy task. I've spend solid 90 minutes solving the problems and did pass with 100%, but it was difficult for an entry guy like me. 3- I waited about 2 weeks and decided to follow up, because I felt like they simply forgot about me, and guess what? They DID! Luckily original recruiter passed my resume to HR for screening. 4- I've got an email stating that the HR wants to speak with me....After a few days I've got in touch with HR and oh my what an experience. I've been in a professional world for over 6-7 years and seen what screening or interview is like, but this one topped most of them, and not in a good way. HR did not have any motivation to speak with me, I had to force HR to ask me questions about myself and past experience, it was extremely awkward and I felt terrible, because I was so motivated and so happy to potentially work for the organization, yet I felt like my time was not valued at all, plus HR did not speak as professional as I expect any large organization. HR had no energy, it felt like HR wanted me to hang up the phone and just never call them. Very unwelcoming, 0 energy , and I had to pull questions from HR . I was highly disappointing... the best way to describe it is..COLD interview.

      Question 1

      Barely any questions, I had to suggest questions for HR to ask me....YES BELIEVE IT OR NOT !

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard (Malvern, PA) in Aug 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was very straight forward. After applying, I had a recruiter screen then I was sent a hackerrank with 3 multiple-choice questions and 3 LC-style questions. Then, I participated in a super day that was two rounds, a technical case and a behavioral interview. Super friendly people at each step of the process, great company values.
