I applied online. I interviewed at ABOUT YOU (Hamburg) in Oct 2023
Interview
Firstly I did a brief interview with a HR recruiter guy, this took about 30 minute and it was a pretty nice conversation. After that I had a 60 minute technical interview with a tech lead. Shortly after that I had a 90 minute coding challenge like interview, and then I had a very brief interview with a VP of product. After all of that, I had the final meeting with HR to discuss compensation and etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
General OOP questions like the difference between an Interface and an Abstract class, SQL questions (joins, indexes, etc.), Vue.js lifecycle hooks and so on. And then the coding challenge which consisted of improving the way a large CSV file was being stored in the database.
First round was with HR, got rejection mail after this without proper feedback. Expected further coding exercise. But disappointed with getting no chance to prove the skills.
Rounds:
1. HR
2. Take home exercise
3. Code review
4. HR
I applied on their career page to work remote for their Headquarter in Hamburg and received a denial. My follow-up mail to get more details about the reason was ignored.
