Entretien
After sending my resume, I had an initial phone screening with the Lead Talent Acquisition Partner talking about the role I applied to (Backend Engineer).
The interview is then split in 4 different rounds, one hour each.
1. First coding interview where you will be asked to complete an exercise using CoderPad
2. Second live coding using CoderPad, where they will try to dive deeper into your technical ability
3. Systems design. Classic systems design interview where you will be asked to design and draw components of the system (database, storage, interaction between components, protocols, ...). There is not need for any particular business or AI/ML knowledge
4. Bring Something Awesome. This one is a fun one. Bring and present everything (technical) you want to showcase your passions and what motivates you in software engineering
Once you'll clear all that, you'll have a final round with the VPoE which should be an informal discussion about you, the team, your interest, ...

Initial screening call with recruiter.
Whole call was not of any importance. The condescension shown was quite interesting. I would avoid this company if possible.
Initial interview has given a very bad impression of the company culture here. I would recommend a revision of your process.

My first meeting with a recruiter was really enjoyable, all my questions were answered. I had a terrible 2nd interview with an engineer who came left and didn't care about the interview whatsoever; he ended up leaving early without leaving time for any questions
