I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Affirm (Warsaw, Masovia) in Apr 2022
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn and we scheduled a 30 min call. After that call came phone screening, and then on-site in name only (all meetings were on Zoom) which consisted of coding, system design and behavioral, so pretty standard. They use hacker rank for coding and system design, and they actually expect your code to compile and run, so not a typical whiteboard

Question 1
Implement a randomized dictionary (similar to leet code Insert Delete GetRandom O(1))
Easy but real-world problem solving stage and an interview with engineering manager, which lasted fifteen minutes - it looked like it was just a courtesy (to satisfy some internal policy requirement perhaps?) since the interviewer wasn’t really interested in anything I had to say. I received a rejection the day after, when asked for feedback I was ghosted

Question 1
Describe a project that you worked on
What good/bad feedback did you receive in the past year
He tenido una primera entrevista de toma de contacto y una entrevista de live coding. Ambas entrevistas han sido muy interesantes y sencillas. Los entrevistadores han sido muy amables. El único problema ha sido que en la entrevista de código sí que requieren experiencia “actual” en el lenguaje de la oferta. Como recomendación, si tienes una entrevista en un lenguaje que no estás usando actualmente, dedica una semana a hacer pruebas tipo leetcode en dicho lenguaje, para no tener que pensar en cómo invocar las funciones
