HR called, she cold-called me. It was one of the worst interviews ever, she was really unpleasant, scolding me that I was unemployed for a few months. When she asked me why I told I had some personal issues, yet she was still scolding me about it.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PayZen (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2025
Interview
The first interview was with lead developer where we did a live coding session, to solve a specific problem and technical questions about node.js and javascript. The second one was with the CTO where he just asked a few technical questions as well as some behaviour questions.
