• LinkedIn: Resumes MUST match the resume prior to you sending me the candidate. DO NOT ADD SKILLS TO THE RESUME THAT THE CANDIDATE cannot answer deep questions on.

There can be NO delays in them answering questions. They should not ask the interviewer to repeat the question (this is a sign they are looking up answers (or using AI to listen and recommend answers.. not acceptable)

Job #1 questions:

1. What is the interview process? (How many rounds? I assume its video only? (no face to face)
2. Two rounds. Video. R1 with manager, not very technical, for fit and problem solving skills. R2 is tech
3. What are the Required vs. Preferred skills?

• Required:
• Apex
• Github
• Lightening
• API experience
• CI/CD
• Nice to have:
• Financial service experience
• Java
• Spring boot
• Microservices

• I am assuming that this person won't actually be doing any Java, Springboot, etc. listed in the “Thrivent Tech Stack (ancillary info)”, since this is a SF developer role?
• Correct but that is their tech environment. May be doing integration API’s into that
• Is this person interacting with end users, gathering their own requirements?
• Quite likely – Long answer that matters: In past 3 years Thrivent has (tried) migrated to Product Owner model where teams of 6-8 own a product, it has been tough up against Thrivent legacy model. Now Teams theoretically do BA, Dev, QA, requirement definition with business owners…. But they are immature and struggle. So yes, will interact with business but it's still rough
• How important is client related experience for this role? Financial products and services including life insurance, annuities, mutual funds, disability income insurance, credit union products, money management, brokerage services, and retirement planning.
• Small, no experience in those areas required
• How long has this job been open? Do you have any competition from other companies (want to eliminate duplicate submissions). Any similar roles been open at Thrivent in last 12 months?
• Brand new, one other firm. Low competition. Great SF at Thrivent story, and we got ahead of the crowd.
