Applied directly online and received an HR email inviting me to a screening call the next day.

The screening call was relatively pleasant, establishing experience and expectations. They talked about the teams at a high level, asked about expected salary, explained benefits, and took questions.

The next step was a video/Zoom call with a tech lead. He was very friendly, and it was mostly an informal chat about experience and the team. He finished with some behavioral and high-level tech questions. He explained the next step was an online tech test, and following that, an on-site interview where they would discuss the tech test solution, have an interview with the hiring manager, and lunch with the team.

The tech test was through HackerRank and tested JavaScript, CSS, and HTML (as this was a front-end position). You are provided with a template project that renders simple HTML components like input boxes, and you then implement some of the missing functionality of these components. There was an additional 'optional extra' question about rendering a simple HTML chart. You have the option of editing the files directly through HackerRank or cloning and pushing directly to a Git repo through a provided link.

I submitted the test and was informed a few days later by HR that the 'optional extra' question "did not work" and they wouldn't be proceeding with the application. I tested extensively on my local Chrome but did run into weird WebSocket and JavaScript errors appearing through the HackerRank console when I tried to preview my submission there. I'm not sure if this factored into the failure or not.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Everyone came across as very friendly and personable, and the general consensus of Glassdoor over Workday preferring 'soft' interview questions over 'hard' technical tests seems to be true for anyone preparing to interview here.

Tell me about a technology that you introduced to your project or team.

What technologies or practices could you use to scale a back-end service?

Do you like working with and mentoring junior developers?
