- A personal meeting wit the system engineer to find out a little more about Qinous as a company – as well as a technical interview to learn more about the tech stack they use. - CEO personal meeting to review the contract conditions

I found out about Qinous through an external recruiter and later was invited for a standard phone interview with a Senior Engineer. The next stage was a two hour long on-site technical interview conducted by the same engineer. It started with a presentation about company’s business and the technical side of it. We discussed their app and some of the architectural decisions that had been made. I was asked a number of open ended questions mostly about my experience, motivation, software architecture, programming in general. It felt more like a talk between two professionals than a typical interview and I enjoyed it a lot (probably the most satisfying interview I’ve had so far). The last stage was an hour long talk with their CTO who once again asked about my background, my skillset. Then we discussed basic contract conditions and he answered my questions about the company. I got and offer shortly after the interview, but after a careful consideration and comparison with another option I had decided not to accept it, which was a very hard decision.
