Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. El proceso duró 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en HubSpot
Entrevista
I was contacted by an HR recruiter who found me on linked in. Was very nice and persistent about coming in for an informal chat to check the office, not for an interview. I accepted, was impressed by the technologies, the talent and the opportunities, then scheduled an interview a few days later. Two days after the interviews I was told the feedback was positive and started negotiating the offer.
Interviews were very technical, met with 4 engineers (about 3hrs), algorithms, big-o, lots of white-board coding and system design, though nothing super crazy. Very informal and casual, very relaxed environment, I wore nice jeans and nice shirt, which made me feel more comfortable, as the interviewing engineers were also very relaxed.

Entrevista
I went through several rounds, including an initial screening, a technical assessment, and follow-up interviews. The process was well structured, but I found the technical part challenging because it required both problem-solving and clear communication under time pressure. The interviewers were professional, and the questions were relevant to the role. Although I did not receive an offer, the experience was still valuable and helped me understand the company’s expectations better.
Coding assessment with multiple levels. levels open up as you pass them. Time constraints looked tight. I could not get through all levels. It was related to Designing banking system.

Entrevista
Consists of an Online Assessment, followed by 3 rounds (2 System Design, 1 coding)
One of the System Design interviewer was less experienced (with an experienced shadow interviewer). I feel like they didn't drive it correctly, didn't ask me the right follow-up questions and eventually gave negative feedback.
