Process
The first round is an HR phone interview. It is pretty relaxing, with some behavioral questions, such as:
- What do you know about the company?
- What position are you looking for?
- Describe your background and experience.
- Talk about one project you are proud of.
Then, the interviewer talked about Redfin's business and the hiring procedure. The next round will be a technical phone interview with coding on HackerRank.
Questions
Q: What do you know about Redfin?
