Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. Acudí a una entrevista en SeatGeek (New York, NY) en jun 2017
Entrevista
I interviewed at SeatGeek in late June when a recruiter from the company reached out to me.
After an initial phone screening, she got me started on the recruiting process which ended being one technical interview, then a take home assignment, followed by another technical interview, before a final round.
Initially I was rather confused on why the process was so long, but the final round interview was with all the senior management of the company including the CEO himself. This was surprising as the company has grown greatly and seemed hard to get feedback top down.
All the interviewers felt genuinely interested, as well as super excited when talking about SeatGeek. It made the process a lot smoother and eased me into the interviewing mood, I think the beautiful office itself is also helped quite a lot.
Smooth process. Coding questions were fair and everyone seemed nice. There were quite a few rounds (by the end of the onsite I got to 7+ I think).

What I did for personal development outside of work.
Pretty friendly process and people seemed very personable and interested in getting to know you. The interviews seemed to go okay but wasn't given detailed feedback on why it wasn't a match ultimately.
- take-home assessment (implement a class with business-logic)
- 2 tech interviews with average questions, they were looking for exact answers, not the reasoning
- culture-fit interview - describe your negative sides / failures
In a bottom line - very slow and sometimes it seems that they don't really want to hire someone - just routinely filling the forms
