First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Trustly.
Senior Software Engineer
O processo foi dividido em 4 etapas principais: primeiro, uma conversa com a recrutadora; depois, um teste de inglês; em seguida, uma entrevista técnica; e por fim, uma entrevista com o gerente. Para finalizar, a proposta foi apresentada.
- Could you explain the differences between Java's Map implementations like HashMap and TreeMap?
- Given a payment system with specific business rules, how would you design and implement it?
Software Engineer
This was the worst interview experience I have ever had. I received an invitation from the interviewer to schedule a 30-minute video call for a software engineer role. I set the meeting and prepared thoroughly, including ensuring my equipment was ready well in advance. Despite my preparations, the interviewer did not show up on time and initially declined my request to join the meeting. After a brief delay, I was finally admitted to the call. The interviewer rushed through the meeting, starting with a quick greeting and then abruptly asking if I was based in Stockholm. When I responded that I was not, the interviewer informed me that the position required candidates to be based in Stockholm and available to start immediately. I expressed my willingness to relocate if I passed the interviews, but the interviewer reiterated the immediate need and ended the meeting, which lasted only 3 minutes. Overall, the experience was disappointing due to the lack of punctuality and the rushed nature of the interview, along with the sudden end after a very brief interaction.
- Are you currently based in Stockholm?
Software Engineer
Started with the recruiter contacting me and sending a technical test. After submitting the technical test, I had an interview with a recruiter who spoke with me in Portuguese and English. Then, they sent me 3 more psychological tests. After submitting the 3 tests, I was informed they wouldn't proceed with my application because they were looking for a more senior profile. At no point did they give me any feedback on my technical challenge, nor did I have a conversation with someone from tech to assess my seniority; I was just told that it wasn't the seniority the company was looking for.
