I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Affirm (Toronto, ON) in Dec 2024
Interview
1. Recruiter Call: 30-minutes; non-technical
2. Technical Phone Screen: Medium-level coding problem with follow-ups (see below for more details). They said that it was going to be a collaborative exercise, but that was not true – it was your typical 'ask question, wait quietly for solution' phone screen, with minimal input from the interviewer. Not a great experience because the interviewer had too many follow-ups to fit into a 60-minute session. I'd still rate it positive overall, because the interviewer was pleasant and I only had to wait a day to hear back from the recruiter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Card Game –mentioned in the LeetCode discuss section for the company tag
Easy but real-world problem solving stage and an interview with engineering manager, which lasted fifteen minutes - it looked like it was just a courtesy (to satisfy some internal policy requirement perhaps?) since the interviewer wasn’t really interested in anything I had to say. I received a rejection the day after, when asked for feedback I was ghosted
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a project that you worked on
What good/bad feedback did you receive in the past year
He tenido una primera entrevista de toma de contacto y una entrevista de live coding. Ambas entrevistas han sido muy interesantes y sencillas. Los entrevistadores han sido muy amables. El único problema ha sido que en la entrevista de código sí que requieren experiencia “actual” en el lenguaje de la oferta. Como recomendación, si tienes una entrevista en un lenguaje que no estás usando actualmente, dedica una semana a hacer pruebas tipo leetcode en dicho lenguaje, para no tener que pensar en cómo invocar las funciones
