Colloquio
I was reached out by a recruiter who without giving me an interview told me that the company cannot provide the same salary as Apple, Google and well the FAANG. I told her, let me first interview then we can talk about salary. The second round was she had me do a phone screening with a shady company named Karat where they ask you coding questions. I could not understand a word from the interviewer and they had me waste most of my time writing print statements where they should have done it prior so I can finish the 4 coding questions provided. The algorithm was pretty easy to implement, but due to lack of time, and too busy writing test codes, I couldn't finish the last question. Also, Karat records you and send the video to the company. Compass rejected me. If a compass engineer interviewer asked me the question, I would have passed.

Colloquio
Pretty chill. Three rounds of debugging, technical (leetcode), and behavioral, which was more like high-level with AI assistance. The values did not come up very much while going through the interview process.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Had us do an AI round about forms and matching things.
Debugging, technical, then behavioral. I had been given two language options for the debugging portion (Java or Python) during the phone interview then when I went to the onsite there seemed to be a miscommunication because the interview said I could use JS since I was applying as a frontend engineer. The debugging was pretty doable, the behavioral was odd but fine.

The interview process felt chaotic and poorly organized. What I was asked in the interview didn’t align with what HR told me to expect, and the interview started late. The lack of alignment between HR and the interviewer made it feel like the company overall may be chaotic. Afterward, HR’s follow-ups were generic and robotic, and the employer also mentioned layoffs, which added to the uncertainty. Overall, it didn’t feel worth the effort.
