Colloquio
4 stage interview process.
Friendly and competent people, exceptional documentation on interview process.
Detailed and prompt feedback after each stage, genuinely pleasant interview experience you will learn a lot from.
- Recruiter Screen ("Informal chat") (30 minutes, Online): Basic job fit questions, admin questions, what to expect during hiring.
- Technical Assessment 1 ("Telescreen") (30 minutes, Online): Basic functions, nothing too difficult, think fizzbuzz tier, they want to see how you think, not what you've memorized.
- Technical Assessment 2 (2 hours, online or in-person): A more complex assessment, you'll get a skeleton and be asked to implement a spec. They want to see how you reason around the requirements and ask clarifying questions. Focus on test-driven development. Be wary of time, there is less than you think.
- Behavioural Interview (2 hours, online): Basic behavioural interview questions, no trick questions. They emphasize STAR and they mean it, you must be able to point to real example situations, so recall those before you step into the interview.
Feedback was helpful, accurate and actionable and helped me land other roles.

Colloquio
Initial screening call, then an involved call with 2 product managers. The successive call was quite challenging where we went into depth for a number of typical product questions and scenarios. Generally quite pleasant but a tough set of questions.

Colloquio
The process included an initial chat with TA, a short video interview with the manager, an in-person technical, and a final values interview.
Although I didn’t get an offer (which was disappointing as the company seems great), the experience was excellent—well-organised, smooth, and very positive throughout.
