Entrevista
I did a coding challenge that is supposed to take about an hour and then was went onsite to Hopper office for one technical interview. I felt like the interview went pretty smoothly; I thought up and coded a solution in line with the spec and received positive feedback from the interviewer, but was surprised with a rejection the next day. I agree with some of these other reviews that interviewing here gives you the feeling that they already have someone in mind before they even interview you. If I invest 2+ hours doing a tech challenge and doing an onsite tech interview for you and solve the problems correctly and efficiently, it's inevitable to feel like your time was wasted and hiring wasn't the end goal anyway.
Full day of remote interviews, 4-5 sessions each with data structures programming. One behavioral round with hiring manager towards the end. Process started with a technical screen consisting of an online programming assessment.

The company seemed really pretentious with them trying so hard to emulate Amazon.
Got rejected after a screening round which was an LLD round. Who screens on the basis of LLD though? The interviewer was not engaged throughout the process and was doing some of his own work. I had to say his name multiple times to bring him back to the conversation.
External recruiter reached out, and afterwards I chatted with a technical recruiter from Hopper. The written communication has been great, polite and timely. The initial chat was going fine until we started talking about the rest of the interview process. The recruiter explained to me that the next step was leetcode style and they used to give 2 days for the challenge to be completed but the women engineers complained that it was too short so they decided to make it a week. I got offended by this specification but still finished the interview as if I wasn’t. Did not continue the process afterwards.
