Process

I applied online and at a career fair – I'm not sure which led to my call, which came after nearly two months.

I scheduled a two-part phone interview, covering SQL and Python. The SQL interview was slightly more difficult, but both were very straightforward. The questions were similar to those in other interviews.

I was invited onsite two hours after my phone interview concluded.

The onsite interviews were super interesting and a lot of fun. Knowing the product was the most important skill, followed by SQL and then fairly basic algorithms.

The recruiter offered me the job two days later.

Overall, the best part of this entire process, apart from the super fun interviews, was the people I interacted with. The recruiter and the interviewers were amazing, kind, and respectful. I was given a lot of prep material before the interview and received ample help during. This was simply the best interview process I've experienced. I cannot wait to be a part of the team.
