J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Atlassian
Entretien
I applied to 2 positions (Java engineer and devops) and had one of the worst interview experiences: - too complex - 8 interviews in total (!!!) - I came to one interview and nobody appeared without sending some notification 1st - their explanation was "software issue" - bad internal organization - I waited almost 1 month to get invitation to next interviews, their explanation was 1st "software issues" then recruiter going to holidays without even really passing his responsibilities to someone else - 3 x 1-hour coding interviews - too much IMHO, coding interviews have very little in common with everyday's work where problems are different and there are libraries for most algorithmic tasks! - some interviewers seemed to me to be close-minded and/or narcisstic, e.g. they don't want even hear how companies outside Atlassian solve problems - despite spending so much times on interviews, I got even no constructive feedback!
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Only some of them: - few simple algorithmic problems - write a console snake game - given class File(name, size, tags) compute some statistics on them (total size, top n tags, etc) - how would you design a CI/CD pipeline? (devops) - design a tagging service - what you do if you and your coworker disagree on something? - what you've learned recently? - (how) did you do architectural changes? - (how) did you convince your team to ...?

I passed six levels of interviews without a problem, but in the end, they said they closed the position. The technical and values interviews were complete nonsense. Anyone can pass with proper preparation. Especially the management and values interviews. But I was really frustrated because they said they closed the role one day after I passed all the interviews. A company that interviews you about values has no respect for you at all. I spent time, effort, and hope on this.

Question 1
- Screening standard pretty basic questions
- Technical (coding) I and II interview is mid level leetcode question but they request an update after completing. They may cause a time problem.
- System Design is mid level system design. But interviewer didn't understand the technologies I use a bit.
- Management and Values interview corporate nonsense. Search or ask AI example questions and create stories if don't have. They are asking question like you have been encountered all types of dispute at previous jobs.

I am going to highlight some of my experiences below.
I felt the interview process was designed to set one up to fail and a waste of my valuable time.
Firstly pitting candidates through numerous coding tests under a tight time schedule is not the way to see through another human. While I conducted all the coding tests and completed the results successfully, I still did not pass through to the next round.
During these tests, I was asked to hold the screen so that a screen capture could be taken. This was a red flag suggesting the interviewer was not following my thorough explanation of the solutions I was implementing. Especially that the language I was using was not known to them and more particularly that I was extremely careful to ensure I deliver each and every thought I was making deliberately. The process felt unprofessional and one way. I did not feel confident in the interviewer's skills especially with regards to communication and etiquette.
Two other red flags I have is the lack of feedback the company can provide. If you can't provide genuine feedback to your candidates and are concerned of legal repercussions; then you must be hiding something! Also the fact that one has to perform another technical test with an external organization does not give me confidence in this organization.
The recruiter initially presents a very bright picture of how good it is to work in this organization and are open to proper follow through however later this felt more like a carrot dangling tactic. After putting much effort to ensure successful delivery, I felt this was an unfair process despite trying to put my best human foot forward.

Question 1
Questions typically asked were along the lines of:
"Find a list of X to fit Y items in provided some other condition."
(I don't want to give away too much).
This is typical to a leet code question at medium difficulty.
