Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The whole process was really quick and well-organized.

First, there was a one-hour phone interview with coding questions using Coderpad. Then, it was a five-and-a-half-hour on-site interview.

Each person interviewed me for one hour, asking about technologies, design, testing, and a coding problem. The coding questions were not too difficult, mostly involving strings and algorithms. They were all very pleasant and friendly to talk to.

I did very well during the interview, except that I misunderstood one question, which ultimately decided the outcome. The recruiter gave me very helpful and detailed feedback, which I really appreciated. Most other companies usually don't provide much insight into the real reasons behind their decisions.

Questions

The questions were around strings and arrays. Nothing was unexpected.
