I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Worldly in Feb 2026
Interview
An initial interview with recruiter. Then 3 stages: code assesments. Meeting with engineering manager and a final meeting with tech lead (panel of seniors developers). The talks were pleasant and the people involved were very polite.
Screening interview: good communication from the talent acquisition person. Interview with a team member and the hiring manager. All three interviews were around 30 minutes each. It didn't feel like I had enough time to get to my questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Worldly (Concord, CA)
Interview
The first round is the recruiter phone screen. After that, I was informed there was a cut on the budget, and the company was deciding what the plan was for hiring interns. Then no reply was heard until a month later for not moving forward. Could not ghost the interviewee and reject at the resume stage.
