I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Firstbase in Mar 2022
Interview
Good interview process, cares about the right things. They are also very accommodating and will make sure you are well taken care of with demands. Not a long process, with a few rounds.
I applied online. I interviewed at Firstbase (Berlin) in May 2022
Interview
Got an HR call but he wasn’t at all interested in listening and just does the normal procedures. Later didn’t even gave any updates after the interview. I mailed 2-3 times but same no reply.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Firstbase in Apr 2022
Interview
Invited for a intro call with the technical director, which went quite well. Invited for a TDD interview to implement a set. Performed well on the TDD part of the interview but was rejected for seemingly arbitrary elements of my implementation for set.
Rather disappointed that I was being judged on the specifics of implementing arbitrary algorithms instead of real programming problems.
