Process
I got a fast-track application, and the overall duration was around one month. The interview process consisted of four to seven tasks, which were logic tests and behavior questions mainly, and interviews. There were only two interviews: one with HR and the other one with an engineer.
I liked the interview format and the tasks content, and I feel it is adequate. My honest feedback is that the process was easy and straightforward. I rarely felt challenged, especially in the technical interview, which was a system design.
I think there is room for improvement on the deepness of the technical examination, perhaps with a third interview with another engineer or a hiring manager, or a technical task. And, just to clarify, by technical I don't mean LeetCode or code assignments, but system design, CS fundamentals questions, and software architecture.

Bending Spoons Work Experiences
- 5.0A truly amazing workplaceSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSeptember 24, 2024Pros: Probably my favourite thing about working in Bending Spoons is how interesting the actual work that you are doing is. Even as a very junior engineer, you are given the opportunity to work on many exciting projects, which in my case has helped me grow a lot and understand deeply what it takes to successfully build apps - a thing that I've always been passionate about. Furthermore, there is a strong culture of idea meritocracy, so your opinions are always heard and actions to improve the status quo are actually taken in a swift manner when they are identified. Another thing that I really appreciate is the environment full of cool, skilled and open-minded people. In fact, the open-mindedness is something that always reflects in any operations of the company, such as how it defines its business strategies or how it chooses to benefit its employees.Cons: When I first joined, being surrounded by so many skilled people started a sort of impostor syndrome in me, but I got over it as I received a lot of support from my teammates and as I grew inside the company.
