Process

The interview process included:

  • An initial technical screening interview (1 hour).
  • An interview with the engineering director (30 minutes).
  • A technical interview with 2 engineers (1 hour).
  • A technical interview with 1 engineer (1 hour).
  • An interview with the design director (30 minutes).
  • An interview with the engineering director (30 minutes).
  • An interview with the program manager and product manager (30 minutes).

The interview process was good because it gave me exposure to many potential colleagues, offering a taste of what Peloton was all about.

The technical interviews were all pair programming exercises. The quality of these depended on the Peloton employees being experienced at this style of interview. The person who conducted my first screening interview kept interrupting me with trivial corrections while I was still working on the code. The next couple of technical interviewers, however, were much more experienced and knew the right time to suggest and the right time to let the candidate think.

The softer interviews were all about previous experience and other skills, with lots of "tell me about a time when you..." style questions.

After the final interview, Peloton strung me along for 4 weeks while they tried to make a decision. Ultimately, I pulled out of the process because I wasn't impressed by the lengthy delay and lack of communication.
