J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. J'ai passé un entretien chez ThousandEyes (San Francisco, CA) en mai 2014
Entretien
They first asked me for a code sample and some pretty standard intro questions over email. They then offered me a coding challenge that involved putting together a D3 project of medium complexity. I then went onsite to talk to them about my challenge and do some technical interviews in person. I felt that their interview process was both thorough and challenging. I got the impression that they have a high bar for admittance. So when they gave me an offer I accepted.
It seems like a lot of people complain about coding challenges like the ones ThousandEyes gives to their applicants. I personally think that coding challenges are one of the best ways to test a software engineer's skill. Its best to evaluate someone's ability to do something by having them actually do it for you.

Can you tell us about a hard problem you've had to solve, and how you went about solving it?

I found the question fair but challenging. While I understood the fundamentals, my lack of experience with certain advanced techniques kept me from fully passing. I'll focus on refining these areas to improve my performance in the future. Thank you for the opportunity.
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez ThousandEyes en juin 2022
Entretien
Initial Leetcode - style Interview followed by on site
On site consisted of another coding round, systems design, and behavioral. I was not in the right headspace and did poorly on the first coding round. They allowed me to schedule one more coding round to "make up" for my first failing (despite passing through the initial coding round). The "make up" round was an extremely vague question with no example inputs/outputs and despite trying to communicate with the interviewer on the question, he told me another requirement of the problem which completely changed how I would have designed the solution 5 minutes before the end of the interview.

Due to the NDA, I will keep it vague.

A fairly regular software engineer interview process. The first call was with the recruiter. After that, there was a technical round with one of the developers. The response time was also quick.
