phone screen, AI allowed interview. Pretty sure I failed this because I let the AI do the system design for me, and just agreed with what it had. Practice system design before going in.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Discord in June 2025
Interview
I was not at all impressed by the interview process. The recruiter is slow to work with, and even if they do get you scheduled, the technical screen is pretty much pointless. Even if you arrive at a good solution, you may or may not move onto the six-round onsite.
I moved onto the technical screen call and did exactly what the interviewer wanted me to, yet was unable to move onto the onsite round. I did not enjoy the interview, really, as it was more of a coding monkey challenge.. not much back and forth discussion.
