J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Whatnot en juill. 2023
Entretien
Started with a phone interview and then a live HackerRank coding interview. In the coding interview, I was asked to solve a multi-part coding question. After getting the first part done and "correct", I was given a followup. I dd not solve the follow-up in the exact manner that the interviewer wanted (despite coming up with a reasonable solution), and they requested I solved it in the "expected" way that they wanted to which was frustrating and that which I did not have time for. Overall, felt like a trivia ask where I did not satisfy the interviewer's demands rather than discovering problem solving abilities. After the interview, I received a condescending rejection email regarding how "incredibly high" their hiring bar is.
only through email to arrange and follow up, not very clear procedure, and you may receive many emails from many people and some maybe system emails, I guess it's a small company, not well arranged for this
Very clear interview process and a great recruiting team and a cool company.
However, the work isn't special but the interviewers have a high standard for some reason -- any basic tenured dev can do the work lol apparently looking for "cream of the crop"
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Basic Software design question -> explain building a web api and then some follow-ups
Coding interview: merge two arrays and sort them based on their squared value: [1,3,7] and [4,10,11] -> simple solution with two pointers
remove duplicates in a string
Some behavioral questions
After going through several recruitment stages, including a home task challenge, the feedback received was vague and unhelpful. As usual, there was no transparency or clear explanation regarding the reasons behind rejecting the application.
