Colloquio
I was referred by an employee. The process took about 3 weeks from the time of scheduling an initial phone call to receiving an offer. I interviewed in Los Gatos, CA in March 2018.
The process started with a phone call from the hiring manager for a Platform Integration team. That call went well, the role sounded very interesting, and a few days later I was invited for onsite interviews. I had a few hours of onsite interviews and learned a lot more about the role, with some technical questions to assess my skills. After the onsite interviews, I received feedback the same day that the team would like to extend an offer.
The technical questions were a good experience. They felt conversational and collaborative, giving me an idea of what it would be like to work together with the interviewers. I learned about some of the plans for the Platform team, and it seems like there are great opportunities at Roku: both for an employee to learn new skills, and for the company to grow.
I was very impressed with everyone I spoke to. Everyone was professional, courteous, and seemed excited about their work! The recruiter was friendly and helpful through the whole process, and I felt really cared about both sides: making sure that I was a good match for Roku, and that Roku was a good match for me. I appreciated the fast feedback after the interview, and because of these reasons, quickly accepted the offer.

Colloquio
Talk with Recruiter, tech talk and Hackerrank with Engineer. Engineer interviewer offered little feedback during an implementation discussion. I justified my selection as being best for a time-constrained interview and he agreed. The interviewer was playing around in my code editor while I was typing, causing distractions and additional errors in my work. Finally, the interviewer was extremely dissatisfied that I did not use the other option that I had discussed, and that I did not select Python when I was told to solve in any language.

Colloquio
Recruiter called me and asked some general questions related to work experience, tech stacks etc. Later they asked about renumeration drawn from the current org: to which I responded saying 'need to check with HR regarding any NDA if they have pertaining to salary disclosure'. I also felt current renumeration being irrelavent question for next role and asked what's the comp. band that this role is entitled to. To which recruiter told without current comp. info, they won't be able to proceed further and rejected on spot.

Familarity with tech stack, work experience and salary.
I had recruiters from Roku reach out the whole year. I finally agreed to do a call. I had an initial call with a recruiter where we just talked about my past experience and what I’m looking for. Then I was scheduled for the next round with the hiring manager and was given zero context on what to expect despite asking. You should know that there be will coding with OOP on your first call with the HM despite no one saying anything about it. The whole thing was silly and pointless.

The hiring manager asked me to do an OOP solution for a warehouse inventory system, where you need to track the type and amount of a product and find the nearest warehouse with products the customer is looking for. Despite this being an OOP and you being able to implement it in TypeScript or any language, and despite the HM not mentioning, your solution needs to handle concurrency and have locking. Then you’ll be asked what you’d do differently in a production environment. You’ll need to state the obvious like writing tests, using a DB, distributed locking etc. The way they asked the question was very silly and assessed nothing.
