Process
I applied online. The process took two months.
The interview process is quite long and complex, but overall fair to the candidate. It consists of multiple steps, including some take-home tests and a couple of face-to-face meetings, aimed at evaluating both your logical and technical skills and your behavioral attitudes.
Questions
There were several, and here are some of them:
- Some "riddles" as logic tests.
- Where do you see yourself in five years?
- What would you rather be working on? Both in general terms, such as something I love versus something with an impact, and more specific ones, such as building software or managing a database.

Pros: This is the greatest place to work. You have the possibility to: - Work with highly talented people that at the same time are very kind and try to support you whenever you need some help (both on the workplace and in private life) - Have full transparency and top of the market salaries, benefits - Participate to yearly retreats all around the world (TWO retreats in 2019) and monthly team bonding activities - Work on widespread products, you feel you can make a difference since your day one on something impacting millions of people around the world - The founders are the hardest workers in the company, they are not "bosses" but "leaders" - Values and culture of the company are incredible - Be part of a tribe, most of your colleagues soon become friends
Cons: There are no cons, actually. The only one is that you have lots and lots of work to do, but this is not properly a con, is something you WANT to do in this amazing workplace.
