Senior Backend Engineer Interview Experience - Barcelona, Spain
Process
The interview process consists of four parts:
- A phone call with HR
- A system design interview
- A live coding challenge
- A behavioral interview
The overall process is really smooth, and you are informed at each step about what is next and the resources that you may need for preparation.
The only downside I find is that the interviews themselves are a bit lengthy, which can make scheduling them during working hours challenging.
