After a quick chat with the recruiter I got invited to their office for a further interview with one of the senior developers. This was a breath of fresh air in the current climate of all interviews tending to happen online. After that there was a programming task, which was also conducted in the office. Although the recruiter had asked me whether I would prefer a backend- or frontend-related task, and said I'd prefer frontend, the task given to me was about building a web service, which definitely hadn't anything to do with frontend. So I ended up spending most of my time researching the correct API-s to use. The business-logic of the service was trivial. I was pleased that the whole interviewing process involved just two interviews within about 1-2 week time frame. Though I did get an offer, I turned it down as it wasn't really the kind of job I was looking for.

One interview with HR/Manager then a technical interview with an Engineer. I had to do write a project on the spot (API build and consume other API). Finally an offer was made.
