It was a three person panel interview with pretty standard QA questions. The interviewers were really nice and spoke positively about their workplace and team. I'd recommend it.

The interview process felt disorganized. Responses took a while, about 2-3 days on average, which made it seem like they weren't very eager to hire me. The offered salary was also on the lower side, even for a startup.

Technical Behavioral

I went through a multistage interview process, although I was initially contacted by an agency. The first meeting went well, and then there was a technical challenge that I thought I messed up. They asked me about things I would have considered if the challenge wasn't so straightforward. I got an offer, but it was lower than I wanted. Then, after some back-and-forth calls, all my other meetings were canceled, and they hired me at the salary I needed. The screening process felt intense, and I was worried I wouldn't get the job, but I ended up getting it.

  • Would you describe yourself as a hacker or a perfectionist?
