London, EnglandPosted Jun 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview felt simple on the surface but it was still long and kind of drawn out.

It was an online interview that ran around two and a half hours, with multiple levels and plenty of back-and-forth.

Even though it didn’t feel difficult in the way that some coding marathons do, it was still a lot of time to stay fully engaged. The structure was more talk-through and extended questioning than short, sharp puzzles.

I didn’t get an offer, but I’d still do it again because the process itself didn’t feel hostile—just lengthy and a bit time-consuming.
