Recent Questions About the Interview Process at Pegasystems

  • What should I wear for an interview at Pegasystems?
    Depends somewhat on which office you are interviewing in and what role you are interviewing for. Most engineers are interviewed by engineers, who won't pay much attention to what you are wearing. Nice jeans or pants. Fashion sneakers or dress shoes. A button down or a blouse. Jacket and tie are definitely optional. Dress in the nicest version of you, where you are still comfortable. Unless you are going in front of customers or interacting with upper management, dress is fairly relaxed for most of Pega.

  • What's the interview process like at Pegasystems?
    It varies, and I believe it is about to get changed. It will likely take about 3 hours. You will get interviewed by a couple peers (the people you would be directly working with), your manager and their manager. The higher level interviewers will mostly introduce you to Pega as a company and technology. The peers will likely ask you to walk them through some of your experiences and may give you some challenges. There is often a test for engineers to take. Do not expect to get 100. Do expect to talk through some of your answers. This is often the most interesting part of the interview.

  • How would you describe your overall experience interviewing at Pegasystems?
    It was very poor. It should have been a red flag to me.

  • What was the most difficult question that was asked during your interview at Pegasystems?
    "Why can't you start next week?" They didn't care about my personal life, and tried to guilt trip me about having one. That should have been a red flag, and I should have quit right away.
