State Farm Software Engineer interview experience

A few business days after applying, I received an interview invitation. The first step was asynchronous HireVue: I logged in, read each prompt, and recorded answers on camera. The behavioral questions were standard STAR-style questions, but near the end they added a coding task that had to be finished in the same recording window.

The coding part was difficult largely because I could not ask clarifying questions and was working in a basic text editor. I had to infer the task by fitting code into an unexplained existing codebase. The editor and constraints were harder for me than the algorithm. I finished and passed the test cases, then never heard back. I assumed I was not moving forward, and did not feel too bad about it because the process had already put me off.

Location: United States. Overall feedback: negative. Offer status: no offer.
