Behavioral Technical
I got referred by a friend and had an initial chat with the engineering manager. We talked about what the role involves, the work atmosphere, and I got to hear their thoughts. Then, I was given a take-home project. It was really long and felt like a drag. I get that front-end people might need some back-end skills, but making us learn a whole new framework for a take-home is too much.

Behavioral Coding
The company got back to me super fast. I had a basic phone screening a few days after we first connected, and then a tech screen was set up a few days after that. The phone interview was pretty standard, like a 'tell me about yourself' type of thing. The tech interview involved coding in CoderPad, and both people I spoke with were nice and treated me well.

Technical Coding
The interview had a phone screen which was 1hr and then an on-site which was 4hrs. The phone screen was the hardest technical question. There were two more onsite technical questions which were pretty easy. I was nervous the first hour on my on site and didn’t do well on the first question :-/ oh well. Everyone was friendly, charismatic, and would’ve been a dream job for me! If you’re a false-negative like myself, then please please practice mock interviews and make sure you’re not nervous! This is a legit company to work for and you don’t want to ruin your chances like I did :-)
