Entrevista
really bad experience. the interview was mechanical and monotone, felt like the recruiter hadn’t even looked at my resume. everything seemed scripted, like it was run by ai. she barely knew who i was.
the worst part was her expression. she kept looking at me with this weird disgusted face the whole time. i have no idea why, but it made me really uncomfortable, like there was some kind of bias going on. whatever the reason, no one should feel like that in a hiring process.
i left feeling totally disrespected. wouldn’t recommend.

Entrevista
A recruiter approached me on Linkedin to talk about the position. She said that the company hired Brazilians, paid in dollars, all that talk. She insisted a lot so I agreed to talk.
We scheduled an interview with me, her and another recruiter who works with her. We talked a lot about the company, my experiences, they asked some technical questions to see if you mentioned the keywords they were expecting, like asking about ACID transactions, etc.
Overall, I think the interview went OK.
They mentioned that the entire selection process would last between 2 and 3 weeks and would have the following steps: an online test on a hackerrank style platform, then a live code test similar to the first but applied by a third party company and not by their dev (I thought it was weird), then a system design interview, review with the team, and a stage to talk about projects I've already worked on in detail and solve a system design problem with their engineers.
Thinking about it now I don't know how they would manage so many interviews in a maximum of 3 weeks.
Well, I didn't have to worry too much about that because the interviewer who insisted so much on talking to me initially ghosted me and never responded to me again, even though I tried to follow up.
One final note: they use a "robot" that records the interview to supposedly take notes without the interviewee's consent. It's very uncomfortable.
Intro phone call which led to a take home assignment. That led to a 3 back to back interviews lasting for about 3 hours with different groups of people. An offer was exited the same day.
