Ames, IAPosted Aug 2017 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I applied through a recruiter and hit a rough final interview because I wasn’t prepared for a much heavier technical grilling than expected.

HR + phone screen — Early interviews with HR and a phone screen went well.
Final interview preparation mismatch — I relied on recruiter guidance that it would be conversational, but the onsite itinerary led to a long, intensive interview.
Final technical screen (harder than expected) — The coding portion was described as harder than what other candidates had a chance to review, with close supervision. Outcome: No offer in both cases; the takeaway was that expectation-setting and preparation for the hardest step were crucial.
