I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks.

The interview process at Ualá for the Android Developer position was both challenging and rewarding. Throughout the different stages, I had the opportunity to showcase my technical skills as well as my ability to work in teams and solve problems.

• Initial recruiter interview: This stage was more of an introduction. They shared insights about Ualá’s culture and values, while I explained my professional experience and expectations. It was a chance to get to know each other and address any initial questions.
• Technical assessment: I was asked to solve a practical case related to Android development. The task involved modularizing a project, implementing patterns like Clean Architecture, and using tools like Jetpack Compose, Flows, and Hilt. Additionally, I included unit tests to complement my solution. Although demanding, it felt like a great way to freely showcase my technical abilities.
• In-depth technical interview: In this stage, I discussed my solution with a technical lead. They asked about the decisions I made during the assessment, how I structured my code, and how I approach complex problems. They also asked questions about coroutines, dependency management with Hilt/Dagger, and design principles. It was a highly enriching technical discussion.
• Cultural interview: This stage focused on understanding how I work in teams and handle challenging situations. They asked how I resolve conflicts, adapt to changes, and manage uncertainty. It was a more personal conversation aligned with the company’s values.
• Final interview (optional): The last stage was with a leadership team member. We discussed my professional vision, how I could contribute to Ualá’s projects, and my interest in the role. It was a great opportunity to learn more about the company’s direction.
