Performance Specialist Interview Questions

4,702 performance specialist interview questions shared by candidates

Phone interview: Project related. Coding: Design Hit Counter. Onsite: Interview1: Coding/Dev team: Reverse Vowels in a string. Interview2: (Perf) Release engineer: mostly asking about Staging area, triage, bug tracking. Neither related to dev or perf. Interview3: (Perf): Language specific concepts. Interview4: Hiring manager: Absolutely, no questions on my resume, experience, STAR etc. Manager mostly was interested in describing the org. This one seemed quite odd, and might explain the 'no offer'. Didn't seem like manager was very interested in getting to know the interview candidate and their experience. Manager said, if they heard all positive things- I'll have to do two more interviews (after 1+6 interviews). Interview5: Perf/ coding: Sort characters by frequency Interview6: QA/coding: something to do with palindromes. Interviewer had no knowledge of C++.

On m’a demandé de revenir en détail sur chacune de mes expériences, en mettant en avant les enseignements que j’en ai tirés. Une question en anglais m’a également été posée afin d’évaluer mon niveau de langue. J’ai perçu un réel intérêt de la part de l’interlocuteur pour comprendre les motivations derrière mes choix académiques et professionnels, ainsi que ce qui m’a conduite vers le secteur du conseil.

I got calendar invitation from the HR about the timing..just at the exact time of interview i got a call from the interviewer asking me to reschedule the interview.Later she took the interview and took break during the interview, disturbing the entire process.At the end of every question she says " I got it, i got it." not sure why she is repeating the same sentence again and again..The interviewer lacks basic knowledge with worst communication skill.She has little to no patience in taking the interview.It seems she just want to get her job done. Interview question: What is AWR report ? What is corellation ? What is spike testing ? Some question related to Jenkins seems like she is looking for solution from me. All the questions are straight forward with no depth. **Note to GlobalLogic: Please select skillful,punctual,patience with good communication resources for interview especially for while interviewing senior resources**
