Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Delivery Hero.
Engineering Manager
The interview process was pretty standard. It covered System Design, Leadership, Management, Stakeholder management, and Delivery management. After the rounds, the recruiter quickly responded saying they would roll out an offer. A few days later, I got an email saying the offer couldn't be rolled out, without any details. I followed up a couple of times, but still no response. If a candidate invests significant time in interviews and receives a positive signal about an offer, it's only basic courtesy to follow up and explain what went wrong.

The interview process had 3 steps. First, a screening interview with the recruiter. Then, a system design interview where they asked me to improve their system and asked some follow-up questions. Finally, an interview with the hiring manager, which was all behavioral questions. I was rejected after the last step.
