Behavioral Technical
The interview process had three parts: first, a phone interview with common behavioral questions. Second, a take-home test assessing knowledge of the mobile games industry and general monetization mechanics. Third, an in-person interview if the hiring manager felt the take-home test showed sufficient knowledge. The whole thing took about three weeks on average. In my case, the hiring manager was great at keeping in touch, and I got to the final stage. But the week I was supposed to schedule the in-person interview, after I'd already cleared my schedule for it and followed up a few times because the manager wasn't getting back to me, I was told the position was filled. This was after I'd spent nearly a month on this internship opportunity, turning down others. It was a huge inconvenience. This usually happens from bad communication or the role being filled internally. I did like talking to the hiring manager, but their dismissive response about canceling was really annoying. Maybe they couldn't help it, but I can definitely criticize the process for being unprofessional. It was a mixed experience, and the company lost a potential hire for good. If you're interviewing with Tilting Point, keep this possibility in mind.

I applied and got an email to schedule an interview in 1-2 weeks. The hiring manager was great during the interview (45 min) and asked some good questions. They said they'd get back to me quickly, but I never heard anything and they stopped responding to my emails. It's fine to get rejected, but I wish they'd just let me know instead of leaving me hanging. I'm not telling you to avoid this company, but be aware they might ghost you after an interview.

Behavioral Technical
I was first contacted by a professional recruiter via email, then we had a phone screen. It was a relaxed and respectful conversation where they assessed my cultural fit and domain knowledge. The recruiter was upfront about the role being in New York City, which is not where I'm located. Following that, two more phone interviews were scheduled, one with the CEO and another with the hiring manager. I proposed working remotely, but I understood their preference for the position to be local.

Technical Behavioral
The hiring process is quite extensive and tough, but I must say they were very kind to me. Part of the interview was in English, which I thought was appropriate. The digital test was very extensive and tough, taking about 14-16 hours, which I found unnecessary, with a total of 3 parts. After completing the test, I didn't receive feedback for 4 to 6 months, which surprised me as it's a serious company and I was in the final selection stage, and the test was dense.
