The interview process involved a Skype call, the Wonderlic test, an HR interview, a software demo, and then a manager interview. It felt like I didn't pass the Wonderlic test early on because everyone was cold and dismissive after that. I've had my IQ tested twice with high results, so I'm not sure what that test was for. If a certain score is required, they should just end the interview there. The employees seemed annoyed and like they had better things to do, and most were wearing jeans. It felt pretty unprofessional overall. They seemed to interview a lot of people without success.

The interview process was excessively long, with 20 to 30 minute delays between meeting with five different groups and individuals. It involved a series of tests, including word ranking and wonderlik tests, along with standard questions like 'why should we not hire you,' 'strengths,' and 'weaknesses.' There was also a homework assignment focused on relational databases. This process seems suitable for candidates with limited to no prior work experience, but for those with experience, it felt like a waste of time as their experience was not valued. I spent over 20 hours preparing. My gut feeling was to cancel, but I went through with it, only to find it was a waste of energy and time. The company needs to improve its professionalism, which likely contributes to their high turnover rate, a point mentioned in other reviews.

Behavioral Technical Coding
Had a Facetime chat with HR, then a phone chat with a developer, followed by a coding test and an in-person interview at their office. The whole thing felt pretty chill and everyone was really nice. I saw some bad reviews online which made me a bit nervous, but as I went through it, I didn't really run into any problems or feel weird about anything. I figure maybe some people just had a rough time or didn't get an offer and are venting. One cool thing is they actually give you feedback on how you did throughout the process. My advice: if you don't get the job, check out the feedback they provide. And don't burn bridges, you can always reapply later. Seems like they made the right call not hiring folks who get this bitter about it.

Coding Technical Behavioral
They reached out to me initially. I applied and went through the application process. I passed a phone screen. A few days later, I was scheduled for an in-person interview. It started with a coding test on paper and then in an email. I also had to take the wonderlic test, which seemed irrelevant. Honestly, I wasn't interested in working there anymore, just going through the motions. The hiring manager then asked why I was there, stating they didn't need my skills.
