Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso 23andMe (Mountain View, CA) nel mese di lug 2016
Colloquio
A telephonic interview was scheduled which lasted for around 30 mins with the hiring manager.The manager was satisfied with the answers and I was told there is going to be another face to face interview after completion of a sample testing assignment. I was provided the sample project on Friday and I was asked to submit the completed project no later that Tuesday in Python or any language of my choice. I picked java since my last project was in Java and I had the setup already installed in my system. I spent few hours on the project and successfully completed the automated testing assignment.I submitted the project on Monday morning so that it can be reflected in the recruiter's mailbox once they open it. After 2 days I received an automated reply from recruiting team that they decided to move forward with some other candidates. No further feedback or updates on this !!!

Colloquio
23andMe interviewing process really stands out of other hi-tech companies in Silicon Valley. First, they start from a phone chat with the hiring manager. Most other companies will use their HR people to talk with candidates. Second, they give you up to 2 days for a coding test t be done at home. Most other companies hit you with 1-hour "supervised" test, which is not working for me and,I assume, for some others too: I am getting quite nervous and the help, which is provided, usually only disrupts my train of thought. Third, and most importantly, on my request the HR lady did provide me with the feedback on my coding test after I failed it. I usually ask for this kind of feedback, but got only radio silence in return from about a dozen of other companies.
There were about 10 business days from my initial application to the reply from HR offering to set up a phone call with the hiring manager. The code test was available the day after the call. It took them about a week to let me know that they were "moving ahead with another candidate." It took them 4 days to provide the feedback I asked about.

While talking with the hiring manager, I was asked about my work experience, my knowledge of 23andMe, and some basic questions to gauge if I know Python, Selenium, and general testing methodology.
The code test was to write a Selenium-based automation (preferably in Python) for testing an online store.
