United StatesPosted Apr 2022 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process combined a quick screening, a spatial/IQ-style assessment, and a technical interview where I had to present and discuss code without prior preparation.

Preliminary screening call — a phone call reviewing what I submitted in my application.
Spatial reasoning test — an IQ-like spatial reasoning assessment, with no clear role connection beyond learning/study ability.
Technical interview — I was asked to present a piece of code and then answer questions about it; I wasn’t told ahead of time to prepare. Outcome: I didn’t move forward; the biggest challenge was the surprise code presentation and follow-up questioning.
