Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela UKG em set. de 2020
Entrevista
Applied for three different roles over the past two years. First attempt: was contacted by recruiter and informed the role has been cancelled and assigned to an intern which doesn't make sense since this was a a Principal level role. On the second attempt (again a senior software engineering role), I was informed by the recruiter that the position doesn't really exists and was advertised only to satisfy a labor certification process for an existing employee from India seeking a green card. On my third and last attempt, I was eventually contacted by the recruiter and scheduled a phone interview only to be ghosted by the recruiter. I eventually got a second interview two weeks later and it has been a total radio silence since then. The recruiter failed to responded to any follow-ups. It has been a complete waste of time and I don't understand how this outfit is promoting itself as a "Best place to work".
Fiz uma entrevista na empresa UKG (Fort Lauderdale, FL).
Entrevista
Online coding assessment on random algorithm and data structure questions. Then in person interview with basic html and sql questions, followed up by a white board coding interview. Problem was on the easy side. Function that receives two lists and returns the max between the two
Perguntas de entrevista [1]
Pergunta 1
What is a tag in html. What is a left join in sql. Then technical discussion about the specific role
Overall the interview wasn't that much tough, you should know the basics of java and spring boot and Java memory management and it should be enough and in the end interviewer also asked some aptitude based questions.

Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela UKG (Lowell, MA) em ago. de 2025
Entrevista
Applied via a UKG recruiter. The process started with an online assessment that included 2 coding questions and 1 SQL problem. After completing that, I had a recruiter screening. The recruiter emphasized that their hiring process was “META-level” and that they bring on FAANG-level engineers. However, the salary offered was extremely low—honestly, even interns at big tech companies get paid more.
After the screening, I followed up but received no responses and was eventually ghosted. About a month later, I got an automated rejection email.
Overall, a very disappointing experience: lengthy process, unrealistic bragging, poor compensation, and lack of professionalism in communication.
