Entrevista
I took a 6 question exam, 3 were coding of your choice (I chose python because it was quickest) 2 were SQL queries and the last was a schema question. The schema question was used in the interview with Mr. Suman. He is soft-spoken and asked me only questions like-
Do you only know python? (My resume and projects show I know more)
Very dry conversation and I filled most of the empty space.

Company ABC sells books to various bookstores across the country. They often have to take payment by credit cards when these bookstores place orders. These bookstores (approved customers of ABC) would like ABC to store their credit card numbers under various payment names so that their employees can just call ABC and use the saved payment names to place orders. This allows bookstores to avoid revealing their actual credit card numbers to new employees.
Make a database schema and be prepared to talk about the situation.

Interview consisted of being put into a room alone to answer basic programming questions with pen and paper, plus some intermediate SQL/Database questions. Very easy questions, if you've taken CS101 and understand SQL/databases, you'll do great.
Completely aced the interview, was told I did better than most people they interviewed on their challenge. Interviewer was very nice and made the test process a good experience. Was then introduced to my interviewer's boss, who looked over my resume, and then told me he could not hire me for the position, because he felt I was underqualified for the entry level role based on my resume, despite 3 years of part time tech industry experience while in College.
Completely wasted 2 hours of my day on a meaningless interview, because they are too lazy to spend 20 seconds glancing over resumes before having them spend 2 hours interviewing them. This company does not care about the people they interview. I also read they refuse to pay devs more than $50k for a position that requires a Bachelor's degree. Don't waste your time with this company.
