Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Walmart (San Bruno, CA).
Entrevista
I interviewed with Walmart for the Front End Software Engineer role. I was first contacted by the Walmart Recruiting team. I interviewed with both Walmart Labs and Walmart eCommerce teams. The entire interview process was about 2 weeks. It was pretty standard. There were phone screens, one for each team. The person who interviewed me from the Walmart Labs team was really nice and he seemed very skilled and knew what he was talking about. He asked some JavaScript questions mostly DOM related. The other interview (the one with Walmart eCommerce), however, went really bad. The interviewer asked me to implement a data structure in JavaScript and stopped paying attention to me. I could hear him watching some video in the background. He didn't respond for a few second after I asked him a question. Anyways, both the interviews went well and they brought me onsite. Two different onsite interviews. The questions were pretty basic algorithmic questions. They were not even tough. If you're good with basic Algorithms and Data Structures, you're good. Both the teams liked me and eCommerce extended an offer, which I declined. I wasn't happy with the interview experience and so I declined.
First, standard short phone call with recruiter. Then a 1-hour interview with an engineer on the team, asked about technical experience and background, and did a live coding assessment via video call. Fairly standard Leetcode style questions
Intense but rewarding — the interview for the Software Engineer position at Walmart Labs was tougher than I anticipated. The technical rounds included an LRU Cache implementation question where I had to articulate my design thoughts on thread safety, followed by a complex system design for a real-time inventory service. What made a difference in my prep were the company-specific prompts I found on prachub.com; they really helped me understand the types of questions I might face. Despite the challenging nature of the interviews, I ultimately received an offer but chose to decline.
