Candidate-reported interview process
The whole process lasted about 3 weeks, and the interviews felt very professional. It went like this: First, a 60-min screening with Karat. Then, two 45-min technical rounds. Finally, a 45-min discussion with the VP that was more behavioral. All in all, it was a really good experience.
The entire process took about 3 weeks, interviews were conducted very professionally. It started with a 60 min screening round with Karat, followed by a 45 min Technical round, then a 45 min System design round. After that, there were three more rounds: a 45 min Discussion with VP, a 45 min Discussion with Product Manager, and a 45 min Discussion with Director.
Started with an external recruiter call. Then had a call with Freedom's internal recruiter. Then a call with a VP of software engineering. They only care about experience with Java, Firebase, and Web Sockets, and nothing else will be considered, no matter what you've done. They only want to see experience writing code from scratch.
