      Software Engineer(Internship) Interview

      1 July 2022
      Anonymous employee
      Sydney
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Circular (Sydney) in May 2022

      Interview

      The interview process consisted of three calls, each growing with formality. The first I had was a introductory chat with the HR recruitment team. It was a light and lovely conversation. This first chat was just a culture-fit interview so I didn't feel pressured at all. The second interview was with the tech-lead (my upcoming supervisor). Similar to the first, this chat was light and friendly - again not too much pressure. We mainly talked about my experience and past projects. The third and final interview was a technical interview (technical questions and a live coding exercise). This was my first technical interview ever so I was a little nervous going in. However, the hosts were very welcoming and established a comfortable environment.
