Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Hopper (Montréal, QC) nel mese di set 2021
Colloquio
Step 1: Recruiter call
Step 2: Hackerrank question
Step 3: Technical screening using hackerrank with a developer from the team you're interviewing for
Step 4: two 1h technical interviews and a 15 mins Recruiter follow-up call.
Step 5: Bar raiser with an executive from another team.
I got to the technical screening process (step #2 out of 5).
During the step #2, I was asked a fairly simple question which I gave the naive solution quite quickly (under 10 minutes).
I then struggled to understand the optimization they wanted me to code, with very little guidance from the interviewer, despite me asking refining questions to help me figure it out.
I ended up understanding with 5 mins left to the interview, I then gave the interviewer my solution by just explaining since we did not have enough time left...
Very frustrating experience.
Full day of remote interviews, 4-5 sessions each with data structures programming. One behavioral round with hiring manager towards the end. Process started with a technical screen consisting of an online programming assessment.

The company seemed really pretentious with them trying so hard to emulate Amazon.
Got rejected after a screening round which was an LLD round. Who screens on the basis of LLD though? The interviewer was not engaged throughout the process and was doing some of his own work. I had to say his name multiple times to bring him back to the conversation.
External recruiter reached out, and afterwards I chatted with a technical recruiter from Hopper. The written communication has been great, polite and timely. The initial chat was going fine until we started talking about the rest of the interview process. The recruiter explained to me that the next step was leetcode style and they used to give 2 days for the challenge to be completed but the women engineers complained that it was too short so they decided to make it a week. I got offended by this specification but still finished the interview as if I wasn’t. Did not continue the process afterwards.
