I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deel (Buenos Aires) in Mar 2023
Interview
It was a four steps interview process: 1) 30 mins call with HR 2) Take-home code challenge (expected to be solved within a time window of 2 days) 3) Technical interview with team leads 4) 30 mins call with an Engineering Director
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Usage of: Nodejs, Express, Sequelize, DB transactions and modeling, and some product-oriented questions.
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Deel (Toronto, ON)
Interview
It was a 1.5-hour conversation. Everything felt pretty easy until we went deeper into some SQL topics. Overall, the offer felt quite low it seems like they’re aiming for cheaper labor.
I just met with HR. The lady was not friendly, that's why I felt a bit stressed. The job interview was not conducted professionally. The person I spoke to wasn't knowledgeable enough.
Interview with this Talent Lead, excellent process tho.

Technical interview wasn’t what I expected. Asked more about concurrency and query optimization strategies, and event driven
