Full Experience
Hi everyone,
I recently received an interview invite from Glean for the role of QA Engineer
Here's the round breakdown I was given:
Initial discussion (phone call) - Default 30 mins discussion over phone call to understand complete information about you in terms of work experience, tools used and salary details.
First round - Hiring manager round
I joined the interview 5 mins before the start time but the manager joined after 7 mins. I thought of call the HR to check whether the interview will happen or not. He joined after that, the question were mostly on the testing (what will you do as a tester during the deadline ?)
selenium code - he asked me to write selenium code to return the test value of 2 elements. constraints was you should complete within 2-3 writes maxiumum. i completed it.
He asked a question - how do you test a system that will count the leaves of a big tree. i said some possible solution and quickly he started with the next question. But i got the answer in mind and i told the answer. Suddenly he told me that i already moved to the next question. why are u answering now? and he started angry at me with bad face. During my entire IT career, I haven't gone through this situation.
He joined late and he started the interview after 10 mins and completed the interview in 45 completed.
During the interview, i got to kno he is not interested to take the interview. if you are not interested please dont waste our time
