Solicité el puesto a través de la recomendación de un empleado. Acudí a una entrevista en Reddit
Entrevista
Shortly after applying for the position, I had a phone screening with the recruiter. They asked standard screening questions and explained the rest of the process. There was a long wait to get to the next stage to have a technical interview.
The technical interview was half Q&A and half live-coding. This interview aims not only to solve a technical problem but also to demonstrate how you articulate your ideas and collaborate with the interviewer.
After passing the technical interview, we moved on to the panel interviews. The recruiter and their team moved quickly to schedule the interviews because I had another offer waiting. The interviews consisted of:
- two coding challenges
- one system design challenge
- one product manager interview
- one hiring manager interview
The day wrapped up with a short debrief with the recruiter on my experience. I received a verbal offer later that day and the official offer a few days later.

The technical interviews were pretty challenging, but the interviewers do everything they can to guide you in the right direction.

Shout out to Andre, the recruiter I worked with. Andre made sure to check how I felt throughout the process and addressed all of my questions promptly!

Pregunta 1
From 1 - 10, how would your manager rate you as a software engineer?
Kinda strange disjointed interview process: Recruiter call, coding interview, manager call, system design interview, coding interview, system design interview.
Some challenges were relevant to Reddit, some where asinine leetcode style trivia. Some interviewers were chill to talk to, others seemed distracted and disinterested in being there. One wanted to brag to me about offers they had gotten from FAANG companies which was pretty weird.
A mixed bag — seemed kinda disorganized. Recruiter ghosted after loop.

Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Reddit (Dublín, Dublín) en ago 2024
Entrevista
I applied directly on Reddit's careers portal. The recruiter reached out to me after the application and asked me a few questions about my experience that were relevant to that particular job.
After that, there was one General programming round that had questions very much similar to what Stripe is known for asking in their coding rounds.
After that General programming screening round, there was a call with the Hiring manager of the team. That went well and then I was invited for Onsite interviews that comprised of four rounds:
1. General Programming
2. Hiring manager round(With some other HM)
3. System Design round
4. Backend programming round
The interview process was very smooth and very well organized. I really liked that from Reddit. Unfortunately, I couldn't clear the bar.
