I love programming. I program as a hobby outside of work. If this is you, you will probably like working at Applied.
Long-ish hours by tech standards: The workload isn't as bad as Glassdoor would have you believe, but the standard is about 50 hours/week of work. I typically work 8:30 AM to 6:30 PM, and rarely work weekends.
Sometimes high pressure around deadlines.
High expectations: If you're someone who wants to write the minimum amount of code as a software engineer and then move into a no-code management role as soon as possible, this isn't the place for you. People here need to actually be good at coding (this is a good thing!).
Overall, it was a typical interview process, but they canceled my final round just 2.5 hours before it was supposed to begin because their headcount had been filled the day before.
Recruiter phone screen followed by one technical phone screen. Virtual onsite that starts with a group introduction followed by 4 technical interviews. Final leads chat with 2 engineering managers, which can be in-person.
Talked with the recruiter for 30 minutes after I applied to their job site. The interview was mainly about behavioral questions and gave a chance to talk about the company and the further interview process.
