Personal growth
I was lucky to get an opportunity to work with the topic I was passionate about throughout my student life. The Fraud team, in my opinion, is one of the most progressive, especially from a technical point of view. Microservice architecture and all related modern technologies like Apache Kafka, Kafka Streams, and Apache Spark give cool and challenging tasks to your brain and keep you in good professional shape. Despite the fact that I'm only an intern and that it's my first real work experience ever, the team is not afraid to load me with very responsible and curious tasks, giving me an opportunity to show my impact on the whole mission itself. That's all different from other internships/junior positions I've seen.
Possibility to switch between teams
That's like a "killer feature". You can switch between teams. So, if, for example, you are more interested in working with ML, you can switch to a team where ML is the core part (as in Fraud, for example). Freedom of choice.
Culture and mission
Great culture built through the perspective of best customer experience – a super important mission for nowadays. People are highly intelligent. There is a strong feeling that there is no "accident" person in the whole company.
None so far :)
Great job, guys!
Additional appreciation for BootCamp!
Video chat with a recruiter, and an onsite meeting with technical people discussing previous experiences and expectations. Had to do a small algorithm test on a web IDE. Friendly people, even though I failed.
The interview went smoothly. The first 10 minutes were for preparations, 30 minutes for the task, and 5 minutes for the conclusion. The question from HackerRank wasn't so hard. The interviewer was nice and explained the task in depth.
The HackerRank tasks were quite hard for an internship position, and I did not get further than that. You had an hour to do 3 tasks: * 1 algo * 1 API-related * 1 SQL.
