First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Beast Code.
Intern
They communicated with me a lot before and after the interview. They were really interested in getting to know me and my background. Everyone I met was very nice and seemed happy to work there. I'm excited about the chance to work with them.
- As an intern, what areas did you want to focus on during the internship, and what was your end goal?

Software Architect
The interviewer was super nice, but it felt like they hadn't even looked at my resume before we started chatting. They let me know at the end that they'd already decided I wasn't a fit within the first 10 minutes because I didn't have enough experience, but they did suggest I should look into the more junior roles.
- Which superhero would you choose to be, and what's your reasoning behind that choice?
Manager
The interview process was smooth and quick, involving an initial 30-minute phone call and a subsequent in-person meeting. The interviews felt more like conversations, where they focused on understanding my value beyond just skills to ensure I was a good fit and comfortable. It was one of the best interview experiences I've had, with continuous communication throughout. Their emphasis on people and culture was clear, even in how they conducted interviews.
- Can you describe what you did in a particular situation?
Software Engineer
They get back to you fast, trying to fill headcount. You can apply for one thing, but they might put you in another role you didn't apply for, with more duties. It feels like a family business, maybe too much so. Don't be fooled by the nice presentation.
- The interview was straightforward and conversational.
- There were two rounds in total.
- An offer was extended soon after the interviews.
