      Bewerbung

      Ich habe mich online beworben. Der Vorgang dauerte 4 Wochen. Vorstellungsgespräch absolviert im Jän. 2018 bei GoPro (San Mateo, CA)

      Vorstellungsgespräch

      Phone screen, followed by onsite. Very standard process. But I have to say, GoPro is a very political place, even from the getco. When I visited on site it was very apparent the company was stressful and extremely political. In a nutshell, GoPro is a great company for those of you who have been around in the industry for 15+ years and are used and desensitized to the B.S. and immuned, more or less, to the political area. For the young people out there, do you go to GoPro. You will be disappointed. I have experienced and studied politics in depth in the industry sphere. According to Conway's Law, the internal politics eventually leak out to the customers and the products the company ships. First of all, there were two recruiters who were contacting me at the same time from the same team and they were ccing the manager and not the other recruiter. I was asked to come onsite directly, which was probably against the company policy, and met the hiring manager in a different building. She then assigned me some tasks to do at home and finally invited me to an onsite interview. The onsite interview was half a day with 7 members of the team. I was not treated to lunch, and the interview began at 12:30, which was very incovenient, because I lived far away, and I had to grab lunch at a safeway store which was close to GoPro. Just look at their product, it is really going downhill. Also, stress in a company is inversely proportional to the resource, and GoPro does not have that much resource onboard. Finally, I never heard back from the recruiter or the hiring manager after my interview, even though they clearly stated they will contact me. I had to contact them after three weeks. In a nutshell, GoPro is a suitable company for someone who has been in the industry for a while, who have been already desensitized to the politics in a corporate environment. Although it is certainly true politics exist everywhere, I would say at GoPro it is very heavy, even from some of my friends who worked there have honestly claimed. Unlike politics at other company, the politics at GoPro is filled with sick people who are just in one word, sick. I was told during the interview something like I would never become a manager one day. GoPro, again, is a single product company. This means intense politics. Like a piece of pizza with only one topping, everyone is trying to get a piece of the pie. There are no tomatoes, bacon, or artichoke on the pizza. And forget having ten pizzas to share. It is one pizza. Their fun room is very minimal and only filled with one ping pong table that sits in a tubular structure that is painted with GoPro logo on the outside. Their exercise room is really small compared to some other companies. It is definitely a small company and the atmosphere is very stressful. Even during the interview I was asked several times by some members of the team how I would deal with situations which involved conflict. This type of questions from the internal team reflects how political the company really is. Employees lived on average one hour away from the company, which meant even more politics, as most are fighting to work from home and avoiding the commute to come to work every day. Those with power or managerial experiences should definitely apply, though, as you will benefit from playing politics and the internal political structures. On the other hand, fresh college or graduate school graduates should really stay away from this place. You will learn very little technical knowledge, beyond the very basic systems, which you can easily find in a standard textbook. The rest of the knowledge relies on you knowing how to kiss up, circumnavigate the political area, and play your poker hand extremely well with a smiling face and stabbing knife behind your back.

      Fragen im Vorstellungsgespräch [1]

      Frage 1

      I enjoyed one of the interviewers who was extremely intelligent and enjoyable. However, the rest of the interviewers were lacking to a large extent. The interview questions from them were like someone trying really hard to make a difficult question, to show that their level is really high. But in fact, their level is the opposite of what they are trying to show. Someone without good fundamental knowledge who are trying to look sophisticated, if you know what I mean. To further elaborate, professors in universities are able to come up with insightful questions that test you based on some simple principles but the questions are very deep yet can be solved with basic knowledge. The interview questions at GoPro, on the other hand, came from someone who tried to make some simple concept really difficult. To be honest, there are really not that much to an imaging system in a camera, but instead, they tried to make every part of the interview process difficult to really underline the fact that they are working on some sophisticated products. The questions were awkward, like someone trying to explain to you the quadratic formula in a very sophisticated manner.
