Entrevista
I applied for Hubspot towards the end of May, within a week I get an email to arrange a recruiter call (which was about 30 mins).
The recruiter sends me the 1st take-home exercise which I submitted within a week. The take-home exercise is very straightforward. It needs some basic knowledge of data structures and how to consume an API.
After 3-4 weeks of waiting, they tell me that I aced the exercise but that they're evaluating their H2 hiring and that they'd reach out in 1 week to proceed with the next interview.
Since then 5 more weeks went by and they have completely ghosted me. I've reached out and got no answer. That's no way to treat a candidate, you should at least let them know you have a hiring freeze (if that's the case?) .

- online (but using your own IDE) home assignment - 3h
- algorithms 1h
- system design 1h

Polite people. Interesting and well prepared home assignment! Interesting interviews, not very hard, but cover many topics. The best feedback I've ever seen!
All questions have been listed here on Glassdoor. I didn't believe that everything could be the same, so my mistake was not to learn it, but to try to prepare in the usual way. Just do this and 80% of those interviews will be covered!

For behaviour interview questions were slightly changed, but same topics. E.g. "Tell me about a time when you had a different opinion about a technical approach to solving a problem than your colleague"
For design system I had a task to design a particular module for "existing" system. There was a rough design and my task was to create a document (e.g. for another team) with tech description. E.g. features, future plans, APIs, types (TS), think about possible problems and ways to cover them. Only from FE point of view, so no DB, latency questions, etc
Frontend and algorithms are exactly the same as were described here before.
FE: addCommas fn and logger with prod mode
ALG: merge two arrays with conditions (maybe something else, but I failed this one. The problem is really easy one (like easy level leetcode problem) just be careful with edge cases

Initial phone screen, then a 3 hour take home coding challenge. If successful you'll schedule the interviews with the recruiter. I had 4 one hour long rounds of interviews. 2 live coding interviews (Javascript), 1 with the hiring manager (behavioral questions), 1 system design interview.
