Platform Engineer Interview Questions

3,042 platform engineer interview questions shared by candidates

I had two interviews. First interview was a technical round for about an hour evaluating the technical skills and understanding the background with the Manager, Architect and another Lead Developer. All of them were friendly and polite. Architect tried to ask some deeper questions and some not so relevant questions. Second interview was arranged the next day itself with the two partners for 30 mins. I managed to take some time and be available for the interview. One partner was friendly was polite, the other partner was driving during the interview and was off the camera for some time. If you are not available for an interview, you would better off reschedule it rather than doing it half heartedly. First conversation was the male partner introduced the female partner and gave me a background about her instead of himself. May be he was not interested to introduce himself. Then during my turn , I was introducing about myself. I was trying to explain my skills, background and experience, then he interrupted me saying that you are explaining in a standard way about your achievements (Felt rude at this stage because he was not on camera first of all and was told my answers sounded like scripted typical interview answers). May be he didn't have time to go through my CV. Well in interview you are meant to explain your accomplishments and talk about your key strengths and then later on I explained about my personal interests, he seemed to have been fine with that. He asked me how old my children were? not sure why he wondered about kids age. I asked about the what kind of training programs are available so I know what is being offered. To this he responded this is a typical interview question that pops up if you google. It may be a typical interview question, but was asked for a reason. Overall this guy was very rude and not interested in knowing the individual strengths and interests. Then I had to follow up several times with the recruiter for the outcome, they came back to me after 10 days that they are not moving ahead with my application saying they need someone with more technical skills. If you realize that my technical skills were not aligned why did you schedule my second interview with in few hours of my first interview? There is a reason why people ask questions in the interview, even if they sound cliché you will need to consider answering those questions. In my first interview, I was asked where would you like to see your self in the next 5 years and in the second interview I was asked by the male partner that what would I do in the first 3 months? Don't they sound like questions googled up. Please respect people's time and give value for their skills and experience. Dont have a view that everything is googled. They totally wasted my time. Good luck finding your Unicorns! and advise to the male partner for not to use google a lot and be actually available for the interviews.
