Senior Software Engineering Manager
Very professional and straightforward. The recruitment team prepared properly in advance, and my expectations were met. Feedback was given in a relatively short time, and in general, I would recommend going through their process.
Graduate Software Engineer
The process included application screening, an online assessment, and a technical screening. This was followed by three interviews: * One behavioral * One for DSA problem-solving * A final interview combining technical and behavioral question
Front End Developer
The interviewer introduced themselves and explained the format of the interview. I was given a coding problem to solve in real-time. Standard behavioral/cultural fit questions. Time for me to ask questions about the role/company.
