J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Okta (Bellevue, WA) en oct. 2020
Entretien
Applied online and get response from recruiter very quickly.
First round is a tech phone screen, question is Leetcode easy/medium level and the interviewer is very nice. Managed to solve the problem 20min before the scheduled end time. Got the virtual onsite Interview request on the next day.
Virtual onsite consists of 3 tech interviews with senior/staff level engineers, hiring manager and the director. All of them were very nice and helpful, the questions are also not hard and I had enough time asking the questions about the team and the projects.
Got an offer a few days later. Declined because accepted another position better fit my background and career interest.
Thank you Okta for giving me a wonderful experience.

Recruiters reached out to me twice, and both times proceeded to ghost me. I don't think I'll waste my time dealing with this company again as clearly they don't know what they're doing.

Entretien
Interviewed for Staff Software Engineer role at Okta.
The interview process consisted of 4 rounds:
Recruiter screening
Hiring Manager discussion
CodeSignal online assessment
Technical discussion with two engineers (focused on the assignment)
The overall process was smooth and well-organized. The online assessment was followed by a detailed technical discussion where I explained my approach and design decisions.
The final round was a discussion with two engineers about the assignment and general technical concepts. The discussion was interactive, though at times the interview felt a bit unstructured, and there were some areas of confusion during the conversation.
Overall, it was a good learning experience. The questions were practical and focused on real-world backend concepts like rate limiting, system design, and trade-offs.
