So the process started with a take home coding test, which was pretty standard OOP stuff. After that, I had a phone screen with the recruiter, which was basically just a questionnaire about my background. Then came the on-site, which was three separate interviews. First was a technical one, second was about work experience, and the last was a chat with management. The on-site itself was good, but the recruiter was kinda rough. They admitted to not reading my resume at the start of the phone call and then just complained about the format. Later, they called about a potential offer but wanted me to take less money than I initially asked for. When I asked how much less, they told me to make an offer. I did, even lower than my initial application, but they still said they probably couldn't match it. Never had a recruiter ask me to name my lowest acceptable salary before, felt like they were trying to lowball me.

The interview was pretty laid-back, mainly to get a feel for your skills and how you approach work and problem-solving. They asked about your knowledge of their tech stack and general development concepts and routines.

Coding Technical

I first talked to a recruiter, and then they sent me a take-home assignment that was supposed to take 4-6 hours to complete. If you have a busy life, especially as a parent, this is a real bummer. You might end up spending your Saturday afternoon coding and then never even hear back from them. They won't even send a rejection email. So, unless you've got nothing else going on on a Saturday, I'd say avoid applying here.
