PortugalPosted Jul 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I ended up in a pretty structured, interview-heavy path.

It started with an HR discussion to get to know me and the role, then moved into system design, and after that I hit code-solving problems where each coding session lasted around an hour. The later rounds were done in English, and overall the format felt like a deliberate pipeline meant to filter hard.

The technical interviews leaned on JavaScript and core computer science basics, with whiteboard-style questions around topics like Promises, the event loop, and how functions behave. I also had to do front-end work—writing a functional React component and answering a CSS flexbox question.
