Senior Developer Interview Questions

30,088 senior developer interview questions shared by candidates

1 hour limit online test with a long question and a long base start code (full of errors and overhead). Instructions indicated that you are free to fully change provided code. Except for Main function. This is NOT true, and they should update their instructions, they want you to use poorly base code as a start point but provided instructions say otherwise. Instructions are misleading, and given time to understand the problem and poorly designed base code, 1 hour is NOT realistic. I guess hiring team wants to over complicate the hiring process and favor job security or use this as an excuse to get more benefits? My research suggested that Sonova is a great company, I was truly shocked by this.
