I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CYE in Nov 2025
Interview
The process was smooth: it began with a recruiter call, followed by two interviews. At each stage, responses came quickly, and everyone I spoke with was genuinely pleasant and professional.

Question 1
You have a list of Jira tickets, each assigned a priority. You need to insert a new ticket at the n-th priority, shifting all existing tickets accordingly. That means the ticket currently at priority n should move to n+1, the one at n+1 moves to n+2, and so on. The priorities should remain sequential after insertion.
1.5 hours of discussing things in the following order:
1. what the company does
2. my past experience (was asked very detailed question such as what code editor I was using, or whatever I was using GitLab or GitHub)
