Coding Technical Behavioral
They started with a take-home screen for React and DOM manipulation. Then there was a React screen, followed by a JS screen, an AI interview, a deep dive into a past project, and a leadership interview. The engineers were often late and seemed stressed. Interviewers for the technical deep dive and leadership felt checked out and seemed to like candidates with strong opinions.

Behavioral Presentation
So there were 5 interviews in total. The first one was a virtual recording where I had to answer 3 questions: why sales, why ramp. The second was a recruiter screening interview, asking about why sales, why ramp, and my career. Then there was a hiring manager interview with behavioral questions, followed by a presentation, and finally an interview with an account executive.

Technical Behavioral Presentation
The interview process lasted almost two months. It kicked off with a one-way video interview where I had to answer three questions. Next, there was a written assessment, which involved responding to four customer email scenarios, requiring a total of nine responses and taking about an hour. Following that, I went through a sequence of live interviews: a 30-minute chat with the hiring manager, another 30-minute session with a product manager, and a 30-minute talk with a customer service leader. The final interview was with the Director of Customer Service, who was new to the position. I consistently got good feedback throughout the process from everyone I spoke with, except during the final interview. That conversation felt quite different; no new questions were asked, there was minimal engagement, and no notes were taken, which gave me the impression a decision might have already been made. When the recruiter later sent me the rejection email, they mentioned that other candidates were chosen, even though the role is still advertised. I asked for specific feedback to help me improve, but was told it was a tough decision among many strong applicants. Considering the length and effort involved in the process, the lack of clear feedback made it feel like a substantial time commitment with little clarity on how the final decision was reached.

Coding
Applied for the role and almost immediately, within 2 minutes, I got an email to do a CodeSignal Assessment, which I had 3 weeks to finish. It was a DSA question about Strings, medium difficulty, and I had 45 minutes. I didn't finish it in time and that was it for me. I didn't even talk to a recruiter. So it went like this: Submitted Application > Got CodeSignal Link > Failed Assessment > Got Email saying Ramp didn't want to move forward.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- A Leetcode-style medium difficulty String DSA problem via CodeSignal.
- There was also a practice assessment which was a very easy String problem, not like the actual assessment.
