Process

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks.

The interview took a total of 5 meetings:

    1. Initial call with HR, mainly focused on Synthesia product and culture, also covered a fair bit of technical aspects, which was very interesting.
    1. Technical interview followed by a take-home task.
    1. Task assessment and follow-up interview.
    1. Leadership interviews.
    1. Offer.

The take-home task was not hard, I focused on the code quality and clear structure. There is no deadline. The scope is probably 3-8 hours, depending on your skills and the level of polish you want to achieve. The follow-up interview had good questions, you can see that they have really looked into it.

Questions

Describe what technically complex projects you have implemented in your previous position. A lot of questions were a follow-up to my previous answers.
