I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Toptal (Atibaia)
Interview
Extremamente difícil se comparado ao padrão nacional ou da américa latina. É preciso estar preparado, confiante e conseguir se expressar bem em inglês e estar craque em resolver problemas de progração

Na segunda etapa rola um teste de programação no codility com 3 desafios e 1h30 pra resolver. É necessário tirar nota superior a 120/300 pra passar. Geralmente tem 1 pergunta fácil, 1 díficil e 1 impossível.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Toptal (Groningen) in Feb 2026
Interview
The first part is a test with 3 questions, fairly easy on common and basic issues. The live coding interview was a 30min task that is hard to complete in just 30 minutes, as you hardly have time to stop and think.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Toptal in Apr 2025
Interview
Send in pdf and they review it, and after 2 days I got into the waitlist, but it's generally a good experience. I would recommend anyone who is interested to apply.
Very reasonable selection process, consists of 4 steps and lasts for about a month if your availability is in line with their pace. Not like Google or Amazon algorithm-heavy and white board oppressif interviews.
