Process
I applied to them over a career fair at my school. I was then immediately contacted, and we set up an on-campus interview for the next day. I had two back-to-back, 45-minute technical interviews. Both were with technical recruiters. The recruiters were helpful when I got stuck, and overall, it wasn't very daunting. They also left time for personal questions.
Questions
Nothing really difficult. Basic Data Structures and OOP questions.

- 3.0Team Dependent, Smart PeopleSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSantiago, ChileJanuary 20, 2016Pros: Great place to work, depending on the team. Really intelligent people, not your classic 9-5 (though in Chile, we used to call those 9-7).Cons: It depends way too much on your team and how your manager coordinates it. So in some teams you don't have much room for innovation, mostly because your manager does not want to go through all the work that going through that road implies.
