Colloquio
During one round with the Founder, I was supposed to interview with Director but interviewed with the founder. After that, I was given this technical challenge which is also available on their website
Spent 3-4 hours working on it.
Got email feedback within a day saying it was not good enough, it appeared to me that the reviewer did not understand what I had done and gave feedback. When I asked for a review again got ghosted. Lost 4 hours. The product seemed a good overall however lot of competition in this space to go IPO or get acquired, but I think the founder is driven and can achieve it

According to the job description, previous knowledge is not required for a specific technology stack. They were lying, they will judge candidate simply based on specific questions in that technology stack and if you don't know the answer, you fail. Waste of my time.

Colloquio
After I applied online for the "Engineer Who Can Design" position, I had an initial call with a co-founder and talked about projects I've worked on. Most of my experience is in web and product engineering, but the role focused a lot on design systems, which I wanted to hone in on more. After I did that, they let me know I probably wasn't a good fit for the role, and that I might be a better fit for another position they had (Product Engineer). I said I wasn't as interested in the other role since it was more fullstack focused and we ended the discussion there. It was a bit of a letdown since I was pretty interested, and they seem like a great company but at least they were really nice about it. I would recommend making sure you apply to the right position and can justify why you would be a good fit.
