I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Wise (Budapest) in Sept 2023
Interview
The interview process includes 3 steps:
Take-home test: It was not too hard, containing three questions - algorithm, API, and SQL.
Video interview: Questions about your work life; you have to create videos at home. It was easy because you have infinite time and can retake as much as you want.
Final interview: I got two tasks and had to solve them with my interview partners.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most important topic was API calls. Other important topics included algorithms and SQL.
The final interview is one hour with two engineers. It starts with a 15-minute values and experience discussion about your motivation, background, learning style, and feedback approach. The remaining 45 minutes is a collaborative pair-programming task focused on solving a practical, real-world coding problem rather than competitive programming.
Maki multiple choice test and a video interview, followed by a pair programming session , waiting for result of the pair programming. The question is a middle level leetcode, testing you on your code writing skills and algorithm solving
There was 1 senior engineer and 1 junior engineer in tis technical interview. The beginning was an introduction, followed by questions on REST APIs and a pair programming session. The interview ended with an opportunity for me to ask questions.
