Candidate-reported interview process
The interview process was well-structured and efficient, beginning with a recruiter screen, followed by two technical rounds, and concluding with a behavioral interview. Communication was consistent, and the interviewers were professional, fair, and engaging throughout.
So I started with a take home assessment that I had five days to complete. Then, about two weeks later, they called me to discuss how I did on the assessment.
The first 'interview' was a code challenge with the recruiter. The second interview was a code challenge with 2 employees. Other than their names, nobody talked about background, about the company, nothing. Just jumped right into the code. At no point did they talk about why they were hiring or even what their tech stack was.
