A lengthy and long interview process that includes 6 steps.
The first step is a simple phone screening, which I am not even sure why it's needed.
The second step is an outsourced coding challenge using a substandard web browser-based coding platform. That code screening is scheduled for an hour, but only 30 minutes are available to code; the other 30 minutes are for a series of random technical questions. It appears they look for completing the random, non-real-world coding challenge instead of the approach. It's a pass/fail system.
Next are two technical interviews, followed by a manager interview, and then a values interview.
Atlassian was unable and/or unwilling to give any rationale for their decisions. This is the second time I applied to Atlassian. The first time, I was rejected after the second technical interview. This time, I didn't even get past their third-party coding interview. In both cases, they elected not to inform me of their reasoning.
They currently have over 200+ job postings for software engineering. I have no idea what their expectations are or if they are just shell positions.
Many system design questions and how one would approach them.
Code challenge: Given a list of words and an input string, find the word that can be made without reusing characters.
