Candidate-reported interview process

Super relaxed first interview with an HR person. They gave some really helpful info about the company. Lots of typical behavioral questions about managing projects and how you tackle stuff. Wrapped up with a short 15-minute technical test.

The interview process started with a 30-minute phone screen. Following that, there was a 1-hour online assessment. Then, there were three consecutive 1-hour System Design interviews. Unfortunately, the outcome was a rejection. It was quite unusual to have three system design rounds for a co-op position. Their online blog also mentioned pair programming through a mock codebase in their tech stack, which turned out to be untrue.

The process included an initial call, an online assessment, and a final lengthy interview. The initial call had a mix of conversation and a brief coding challenge. The online assessment was extensive, and the final interview consisted of two questions. Overall, it was perceived as challenging.
