I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Affirm in June 2025
Interview
The process started with an online assessment (OA) two algorithm questions and one system design-style prompt. The OA felt tailored to Affirm’s product focus, with edge-case-heavy scenarios. I found it helpful to review past Affirm-style OA questions through Hack2Hire they had a breakdown of how Affirm tends to test product intuition in technical questions.
After the OA, I had a technical interview with a senior engineer who focused on my problem-solving approach rather than just getting the correct answer. The final round was behavioral, with questions about ownership and collaboration.

Very fast process with really friendly people. Great interview experience. The process went as such:
1. OA with standard leetcode style questions
2. Recruiter call
3. Technical focused on practical coding
4. Virtual onsite consisting of a behavioural and 2 practical coding technicals

Overall good experience. Recruiter is very helpful along the way. 2 technical rounds and 1 behavioral round. First met with an engineer for the 1st technical and another engineer a few days later for the second round technical followed by a behavioral with a manager.
