Senior Backend Engineer Interview Questions

2,039 senior backend engineer interview questions shared by candidates

There wasn't really a challenging interview question anywhere to be seen in the entire process. The technical interview was very soft and the interviewers didn't seem very confident in asking questions or having a technical discussion. It was a lot like being interviewed by a bunch of junior engineers. What it really boiled down to is that there was no personal chemistry between myself and the interviewers. They didn't like my style, and I really didn't much care for theirs either. The problem for the management of the company is that this kind of filtration and selection process might produce a group of people who can get along in an elevator, but it is not going to secure you the kind of engineering talent you need for when things get hard.
