Technical Support Engineer Interview

Nov 19, 2019

Anonymous Interview Candidate

No offer

Negative experience

Difficult interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at VMware (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2019

Interview

It was a 2hr interview. The first two sessions were 45mins, the last session was 30 mins. Each part of the interview process is with different people, you sit in a room and different people come in for each of their sessions. The technical part is the hardest part, I would say brush up on coding, SQL and general knowledge of Internet Protocols.

Interview questions [3]

Question 1

For the technical part, they give you a code to solve, then an SQL question and then a troubleshooting question. 45mins

1 Answer

Question 2

the communication part is basic customer service questions and you experience handling certain scenarios. 45mins

1 Answer

Question 3

the last part is one abstract troubleshooting question, like if an app on your phone isn't working what do you do or if you get a call from a customer saying they can't process payment what do you do. Then you ask any questions you have about the company and or the role.
