I applied online. I interviewed at ServiceNow in Mar 2021
Interview
applied online, then got a phone screen doing an online coding and some database related question. Was invited to onsite. Technical part went well, until reached the hiring manager round, where he asked many behavioral questions. I didn't do well pleasing him. In the end of that round he said the director(the director was supposed to be the last interviewer in the loop) had a schedule conflict, so he could not make it today, and said we may find some other time to talk. I immediately know he failed me. As expected, the director call never been rescheduled, and the recruiter never reach me back, even not a rejection email/call.
My overall impression is some interviewers are not professional and don't treat candidates with respect. I can easily extend this to how they treat their co-workers or team members.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some medium level coding questions or problems happened in work.
The process was straightforward: phone screen, meeting with the hiring manager, three more interviews with team members and department head involving technical and behavioral questions. However, at the end of it all, even though they said they wanted to proceed to hire me, they stated they did not (yet) have a budget/headcount available for the position and wouldn't be able to make an offer until next quarter IF they get the budget... so why were they interviewing for the position now in the first place? Frustrating to have spent all that time interviewing only to learn this AFTER the whole process.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ServiceNow (Dublin, Dublin) in Dec 2024
Interview
2 technical interviews, 2 coding questions for each one and 1 system design questions, one coding question was NP hard.
and recruiter was about to move to final interview and then rejected saying that new requirements showing up so cannot move, I was like: ???
I mean I have seen similar stories here on Glassdoor about this similar situation, so I am not surprised, but can you find an even lamer excuse? Made my whole day, toxic people
