Candidate-reported interview process

The whole interview process took less than 4 weeks, from the initial HR call all the way to the offer. It started with an HR call, then there were 2 more rounds. The first round was with 2 Product Managers to check if I was a good fit for the role and the company culture. The second round was a case study that lasted 45 minutes.

It was pretty hard, the take-home case was for checking the knowledge of algorithms and android. Everyone in the review process was very nice and helpful. The whole process was transparent, and I was informed all the time.

We started with a recruiter call, then I had a virtual interview with a manager, and finally a full day onsite where I did some agile tasks and had three interviews covering different topics.
