J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Okta
Entretien
Had a recruiter reach out, did a quick questionnaire which was forwarded to the engineering manager for review. Once I got the green light I was scheduled for a first round technical phone screen. They rescheduled the interview twice. The first time I got a notification 15 mins prior to the scheduled time saying they've moved the interview to a week later. The second was 3 days prior to the new date. Once I did get around to interviewing for the technical phone screen, interviewer seemed very uninterested and would not answer my clarifying questions. Just a simple "I don't know, what do you think?".
3 rounds of interview first round is coding round taken by a principal engineer who asked a complex coding question not DSA but take complex json input parse it flaten it and make weighted average of the inputs and provide a output in a different format
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Coding question about data json handling and weighted average calculation
Interviewed in summer 2024. Talk with screener about job, role, etc. First stage was talk with Hiring Manager about exp. Second's home work, create backend service using their reqs, nothing complicated but time consuming. 3d stage arch decision talk with one of the engineers from target team (also security related questions, basic topics without depth). 4th and last interview was with Head of Department or some similar role, std behavioral questions, motivation talk, etc. Didn't pass last stage, reason unknown. 1.5 mos from first contact to the end. Neutral since last stage was terrible, weird talk, ghosted results (before were responsive).

Question 1
What is Cross-Site Scripting and how to prevent it.
Took 6 weeks for a single interview then never heard from again. Would wholeheartedly not recommend them to anyone ever. This is just too much for anyone to have to go through.
