LucidLink Software Engineer Interview Questions
& Process

The hiring process involves four stages. First, you'll chat with a recruiter. Then, there's a technical test. After that, you'll work on and present a project. Finally, you'll meet with management.

So the interview process had four main parts. First up was an intro/culture fit chat. Then I had a technical interview with two engineers. After that, I got a take-home assignment, and I could pick my own deadline, but it needed to be production-ready. Once I submitted it, we had a meeting to go over my solution. The last interview was in-person with the management team. Got the offer the next day. The whole thing took a little over a month, mostly waiting on that assignment. It was a good experience though, they gave me feedback fast after each step.

First, there was about an hour-long meeting with HR and the current automation QA engineer, who is actually a developer involved in product development. The goal was to get acquainted. Next, I had to complete a Python take-home assignment. Then, I had a 1.5-hour review session for the assignment with the automation QA and a principal engineer. Following that, there was another 1.5-hour technical interview with the same team members, covering operating systems, OOP, data structures, algorithms, etc. The final interview was scheduled for 1.5 hours in the office with two lead engineers or the VP of Engineering, but I did not reach that stage.
