Candidate-reported interview process

Started with an online assessment, which had two questions. Then, there was a 1-hour phone interview. This was followed by an online coding test that involved a real-world scenario and problems. It included follow-up questions that asked for explanations and comments, requiring everything to be meaningful. After that, there were some general background questions.

The interview can be tough. Be prepared for engaging but challenging questions designed to assess your knowledge. It was a generally pleasant experience. I'd suggest giving it a shot if you're qualified and ready to join a team of talented developers.

I started with an online assessment where I had to submit answers to some algorithm questions. After that, a phone call interview began. HR was very responsive overall, and it was easy to communicate with the interviewer. The whole process went smoothly and was very clear.
