The interview process
Described in candidates’ own words.
“Thorough, straightforward and covered technical understanding. Also looked at strategic thinking, leadership skills and ability to work with multiple teams. Asked about mindset and checked for cultural fit. Goes through project lifecycle and confirms your experience and methodology.”Candidate-reported process
“Email saying I made it to the final round or Super day, then three 45 minute interviews back to back. Three separate interviews, mostly behavioral with a few system design questions based on my resume.”Candidate-reported process
“The interviewer came across as very friendly and easy to talk to. The conversation flowed naturally and felt more like a casual chat without any trick or "gotcha" questions. This was for a contractor position, so the interview for a full-time role might be set up differently.”Candidate-reported processMore reports lockedRead 300+ more interview experiences
