Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Guidewire (Dublín, Dublín)
Entrevista
I got referred through a recruitment agency. Initially I had little interest in the job as it was in a different city and I had never heard of the company before but the recruiter was quite adamant that I look into it. After a little research and looking at reviews here it was clear this company was above average and had a good work culture so I went for it.
The interview process is long but thorough. It was almost 4 weeks from the initial code test to offer.
Technical exam: Coding exam for 4 hours with 3 coding problems to solve. One on JDBC, another on improving functional but poorly written code and an optional question on either JMS or iterators.
Face-to-face interview: I had 3 individual interviews up to an hour long each. None were particularly technical, focusing mainly on my college projects, communication and people skills. One had some emphasis on problem solving and included a few brain-teasers.
During the face-to-face interviews it was immediately apparent that the interviewers were genuinely happy to work for Guidewire and were all highly intelligent, rational people.
Despite getting an offer in my home city for a higher base salary I chose Guidewire, they made it an easy choice.
