I first interviewed with a different department using a panel format. Then, after a quick phone chat to get to know each other, I was connected to the supervisor of the department I ended up being hired in. After that supervisor got promoted, the office environment and morale went downhill. The amount of work keeps you busy, which I like. If you're driven, you can get ahead on your own, rather than relying on those in charge. The general vibe can be a bit childish and immature. But hey, make your money!

Behavioral Technical

Scheduling was simple. The panel was meant to have three people, but only one showed up. They asked a lot of questions, so be ready. Many were scenario-based, asking how you'd deal with specific situations. They asked about my familiarity with ecaps. They also asked about a time I dealt with a stressful task and how I managed it. The interview was about 30-40 minutes long.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Can you tell me about a time you had to handle a stressful task?

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was informative, inclusive, and had strong, insightful questions. It was affirming and moved at a quick pace. The interview offered a good look into the organization. Three or four team members were part of the interview. Their business-like approach, positivity, inclusiveness, and focus on results were evident.

Technical Coding Behavioral

So first there's this filter round 1 with two SHL tests, basically checking logic and personality. Then there's filter round 2, a big exam on programming stuff, a leetcode medium problem from Automata, and REST principles. If you pass that, you go to round 1 with the department. This part varies, but usually it's 30 mins for behavioral questions and 30 mins for technical stuff. If they like you, you get invited to round 2 to meet the team, which is more of a vibe check. The whole thing takes about 3 months.
