The interview process was really quick and went smoothly. First, there was a Technical Recruiter who had a really friendly chat. She went over what the company does, what the role entails, what the expectations are, and gave some general info about the candidate. The very next day, I got an invite for a technical interview that involved coding questions. Then, I had an interview with the Hiring Manager. After that, there were panel interviews covering Software Design, DDD, and software quality. Everyone I talked to was super friendly, smart, and interesting. I was also really impressed by how fast the whole process moved.

So the interview process has a few stages. First, you meet with the hiring manager to talk about your technical background and past projects. Then, there's a technical coding round where you'll do a LeetCode medium-ish problem, and they'll ask follow-up questions about how it relates to real-world engineering and system design. The final part is a virtual on-site with several interviews covering system design, API design, and quality assurance. They really emphasize working together and talking through the problems to make sure you understand them and can explain your solutions. Everyone was really nice and made it feel welcoming!

Coding Technical
The interview process at this company felt disorganized. It took about a month and a half to speak with only three people, and the interviews felt like they were still in the screening phase. There were long gaps between interviews, making it hard to remember previous discussions. I wasn't sure what the overall process was, as they'd contact me every couple of weeks to schedule the next chat. The last person I spoke with seemed unprepared. They gave me a problem and a shared environment that wasn't set up correctly, forcing a scramble to find a tool to complete the interview. This lack of preparation wasted a significant portion of the interview time, preventing me from finishing the problem. I also question their focus on a web presence when the product is an app; they need to re-evaluate their strategy.
