I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Caylent (Rio de Janeiro) in Sept 2024
Interview
The interview process was respectful and fast. I only had three meetings: the first with the recruiter and the other two with engineers who asked me how I built some systems in the cloud. This was the best interview process I've been through. No coding and fast answers.
The selection process was very quick and super smooth; everything was completed in just 3 stages. The technical stages were quite challenging, requiring me to build robust architectures simulating real high-scalability cases. I felt very excited from the very first contact, with all the warmth and positive energy.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Caylent in Sept 2024
Interview
The process was quick and straightforward. In two weeks, I had three interviews: one with HR to discuss my experience and expectations, and two with architects about my technical background.
The first technical interview focused on development topics like Object-Oriented Programming, parallelism, and AWS resources such as DynamoDB and Lambda. The second interview included a discussion of my background followed by a 30-minute System Design session.
