Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 1 semana. Fui entrevistado pela TDS Telecommunications (Madison, WI) em mar. de 2017
Entrevista
The format was 30 minutes with three technical team members then 30 minutes with some managers (2 in my case). Tech team had me rate myself from 1 to 10 on a list of skills then they had sheets of questions to ask about depending how I rated myself. For me they choose Linux, Java, and SQL.
After that they left the room to talk to managers. Things seemed to be on a tight schedule. They didn’t ask about my background much. Then they sent in the managers for basic HR questions.
The management part was kind of weird for me. I weaved in a narrative for each of my top qualities like you do—then when I was done one of the managers asked me to repeat the three qualities again without the narrative. I said that sure like one word to sum them up. He said, “No, doesn’t have to be one word. I just want to know if you remember what you said.”. So rude! I would decline a position working with him.
Everything seemed a little rushed like they had specific questions they needed to check off a list. Not much time for me to ask questions.
