      Anonymous interview candidate
      Brisbane
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shorthand (Brisbane) in Mar 2025

      Interview

      15 minute screen, then two take-homes. First was creating a React frontend interfacing with an existing 3rd party API, second is writing a short article using the platform on any topic. After the take-homes, 4 stages of interviews, each interview around an hour long. Interviews were mostly behavioural questions following STAR with a bit of systems design. Overall roughly 9 hours altogether including time spent on the take-homes.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a situation where you were working in a team, but a team member did not complete their part properly -- how did you handle it?
