Perguntas de entrevista de vagas de Senior Software Developer da empresa ASOS

1 step. Contact with HR 2. Conversation with current employee. There must be someone in the same position that the candidate is applying for. But there was a mistake in process, so I get Software Engineer instead of Senior Software Engineer. I did not get answers on my questions or clear instruction on the process. 3. Refactoring. I was told that I should not focus on tests, so I did not, but in the feedback report that was a single part where I failed

Process took a couple of weeks and I went through an external recruiter. Firstly I had a MS teams video call with an engineering manager and software engineer. Discussing the role in more detail and my relevant experience. This was pretty relaxed and informal. After a week I then had to chase to be given feedback and details on the next stage. Second stage was a take home technical test which 2-3 hours, was pretty straight forward refactoring exercise in order to add unit tests whilst adhering to SOLID principles. Also to keep in mind KISS, YAGNI l, ask don’t tell etc. Thought I’d done ok on this considering the time limit and ASOS not wanting gold plating as mentioned in the test brief. Was told I wasn’t successful as it wasn’t what they were looking for from SSE. Didn’t receive any more feedback than that I.e exactly what was missing/incorrect from my submission. This is really disappointing considering I took the time to do the test. Also considering they advocate pair programming/ TDD the take home test doesn’t really align with that.
