Process
A recruiter reached out to me. She gave me a great overview of the company and the role she was recruiting for, as well as an overview of the interview process.
Grammarly has a long interview process compared to most, with eight interviews that included:
- Tech screen
- HM
- CS fundamentals
- System Design
- Frontend
- Culture
- Values
Though long, it was fair. The people you meet are personable, patient, and seem like people you would want to work with.
Special shoutout to my recruiter who helped accelerate my interviews and offer because I had another offer in hand!
Questions
CS fundamentals, async programming, system design, build a small frontend application.
