I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bolt (Warsaw, Masovia) in May 2026
Interview
My first two technical interviews with the people in Estonia went quite well. However, the API design interview I had afterwards with the person in Poland was the worst interview I have ever had.
Positive experience
Difficult interview

4 interviews
1. Tech screen - implementing an API

Interview
Feels a bit that these interviews are conducted just for show and their own friends are anyway prefered and hired without actually going through the process at all. Must be nice way to earn bonuses.
