My loop started with a recruiter chat, then I moved on to an interview with the hiring manager. After that, I had a frontend component coding interview where I was given a very basic mockup and had to build a component. The goal wasn’t just to code blindly; I was expected to gather requirements by asking questions, and the ambiguity of the prompt was a real part of the challenge.
Once I finished the coding portion, I had an interview with the head of performance, and then I went into a culture interview. The recruiter had given me a lot of information about what to expect and helped me prep, which made the process feel more navigable even though the questions themselves were demanding.

My process at ClickUp felt refreshingly grounded in real work. After a friendly recruiter intro, I ended up with a sequence of calls that didn’t feel like a puzzle contest—there weren’t “gotcha” tricks, and the atmosphere stayed positive. I went through multiple technical conversations: one short introduction, a behavioral and culture-focused discussion, and then two meetings centered on code and component design. The vibe was collaborative, and I remember a lot of context being provided during the presentation-style portion.
The technical rounds leaned into practical examples rather than trying to squeeze everything into a strict LeetCode template. I used online coding tools for the engineering parts, and the questions felt like they were built around day-to-day problems. What surprised me was how much “story” there was to the work they were showing, and how willing the interviewers were to keep things conversational while still being technical.
