Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. El proceso duró 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en ElevenLabs (Madrid) en jul 2025
Entrevista
First I had coding challenge. 3 exercises, the first 2 were easy, last one was hard and didn't pass all tests.
Then technical interview. The exercise was to design a permission system. I solved it but with a little help and they said they were expecting more autonomy.
Thank you for the self-aware account. Naming where you leaned on help and what the autonomy bar looked like is honest reflection.
Thank you for taking the time.

Screening then directly tech interview. The first interview was a classic fit call, the second a case with code to solve a certain problem for a client. The FDE team on the second call wasn't very nice.

Thank you for sharing this. We are sorry the second interview did not feel the way it should have. Candidate experience is something we take seriously. If you would like to share more about your experience directly, we would value it.
Thank you for taking the time to write this.

Unprofessionalism at its peak. I applied in December 2025, and got an email from the recruiter late December that they had completed their headcount for the year. So will reach back in the 1st week of Jan. Feb has started, I have followed up like 5-6 times to the team, no response. Nothing.
I would recommend not applying there. For a company that boasts that they have one of the most brutal interview processes, this is peak unprofessionalism. It screams that they don't value a culture of communication. Even if you clear interviews there, my experience would tell you that there is a high probability they would ghost you, so don't even bother to join it.

Didn't get to the interview stage. I kept waiting for their response.
Thank you for the specific account. The follow-up not happening after the December commitment is not the experience we want any applicant to have - the silence after a stated next step is concrete and fair to flag. If you would be open to a confidential conversation about your specific situation, we would value it.
Thank you for taking the time.
