Process

I had an enjoyable series of interviews and made it to the last stage.

All the interviews happened on-site, but I had to complete a Codify screening test to be invited to the first round. This was relatively straightforward and took approximately two hours.

The online challenge was to design a user-friendly online application system. The interface was clean, and the questions were relevant, reflecting what they were looking for in their team. The response time was commendable, and I received an invitation quickly.

I then had a series of virtual interviews with seasoned software engineers who presented challenging problems. The emphasis was not just on solving the problems but also on demonstrating my thought process and problem-solving skills. The interviewers were engaging, encouraging, and genuinely interested in understanding how I approach complex issues. Following this, I progressed to on-site interviews.

The day included a mix of technical assessments, collaborative problem-solving sessions, and opportunities to interact with potential team members. This was a great experience.

From the feedback, I understand I made it to the last round, but other candidates were ultimately selected due to more experience and/or a better fit. Still, it was a good experience!
