Every onsite I’ve been to allows the interviewee to understand more about the team/culture during lunch. Lunch is typically a time where you’re not being evaluated for your responses. A certain company which will remain nameless, did a full interview during lunch while I was trying to eat asking me in-depth questions about my experience. At the end we did a whiteboard problem as well. This annoyed me as lunch is when I’m decompressing during a lengthy onsite process of constant evaluation. What are your thoughts on lunch interviews?
If you are gonna call it lunch interview, expect to be interviewed.
Not everyone likes the idea to eat and interview..
Whiteboard during lunch? No respect for the interviewee
Apple and ARM, IIRC.
Can confirm :(
Best opportunity to evaluate the culture of the company and speak candidly. It’s really a missed opportunity when companies don’t put more thought into this unstructured gap in the day.
Whats cultural fit?
I had full interview (non-technical role) over lunch at Microsoft
We dont evaluate.
At Google it is just lunch. If you admit murder it may affect your chances.
Apple did this to me. I only got to eat a few bites before I was asked to whiteboard.
