J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. J'ai passé un entretien chez Walmart en déc. 2025
Entretien
I had a first-round technical interview through Flexton (staffing agency), and unfortunately it was by far one of the worst interview experiences I’ve had. The problem itself was a standard LeetCode-style question and not particularly difficult. However, the interviewer’s behavior made the experience uncomfortable. He required me to share my entire screen and even questioned my default camera settings, asking me to open my laptop display settings, which felt unnecessarily invasive. During the problem-solving portion, he repeatedly interrupted me with unsolicited comments. Less than five minutes in, he said I was “taking longer than expected.” Throughout the interview, I was trying to explain my thought process, but he completely ignored me and continued making condescending remarks such as “It’s been x minutes and you still haven’t solved it” and “Have you been practicing LeetCode?” These interruptions made it difficult to focus and created an adversarial atmosphere. Overall, the interview felt extremely unprofessional and disrespectful.
I’m sharing this feedback so Walmart is aware of how its contracted interviewers may be representing the company in early-stage screenings.
First, standard short phone call with recruiter. Then a 1-hour interview with an engineer on the team, asked about technical experience and background, and did a live coding assessment via video call. Fairly standard Leetcode style questions
Intense but rewarding — the interview for the Software Engineer position at Walmart Labs was tougher than I anticipated. The technical rounds included an LRU Cache implementation question where I had to articulate my design thoughts on thread safety, followed by a complex system design for a real-time inventory service. What made a difference in my prep were the company-specific prompts I found on prachub.com; they really helped me understand the types of questions I might face. Despite the challenging nature of the interviews, I ultimately received an offer but chose to decline.
