Colloquio
One year ago, I was approached by a recruiter on LinkedIn. We had a small sync up meeting and shortly after they shared a take home assignment .
I gave ~4-8 hours of my time to finish the assignment and all I got in response was an email from an automated system(no-reply@) with mostly vague feedback.
I understand the solution that I submitted didn't meet the standards but given the time I had spent working on it, it's fair to assume and also a standard industry practice, that a proper feedback is provided to the candidate to help them realize their mistakes and help them grow.
Fast forward one year, on a Friday I was approached by a recruiter again and I shared my feedback (as I wrote above) with them. They apologized and said they'll try to change the experience this time.
I did some thinking over the weekend and on Monday as I was typing a reply agreeing to get into the process again, I got an email again from no-reply@ saying sorry we've decided not to go through, this time I didn't even interview!.
I'm not sure if I'd ever want to be in the loop with them again.

Domanda 1
A Java application that requires good knowledge of concurrency and working knowledge of Reentrant locks
Slow but transparent. At each stage, it was clear what to expect. Hard process but worth it if you want to this type of company. Be prepared with the classic study material (cracking coding interview, STAR, etc.)

Colloquio
Standard hiring pipeline. Algorithmic question, system design and then project deep dive.
The people I met during the interview were really intelligent and insightful, the recruitment team was subpar.
I would definitely reinterview but am wary of their recruitment team. After having twice experienced poor communication from them.

Overall the whole procedure is very clear and the recruiter is supportive. Every interview had a good setup and I was feeling comfortable.
In the end I recieved a notice, that I will get an offer and was informed what that offer is going to be. The only con here is that the process took 1.5 month.
But this is where everything went wrong.
Recruiter disappeared for 2 weeks and then called with bad news, that the role is put down and they hire for it no more. They said, that there is another 2 roles in 2 other teams and I will have one more interview with the team. I thought it's going to be just a formal interview, but the teams said I don't pass technically, which is ridiculous, because I already passed 2 other technical interviews.
Recruiter told me, that I'm going to be a priority as soon as other roles are going to appear. But so far more than 10 roles appear and noone reached me. I tried to apply again and also wrote to recruiter twice and nothing happened. So basically this is a complete chaos of a company and if you don't want to waste your time like this, just avoid it.

System design interview is the most important. So be prepared
