I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ebury (Madrid) in May 2024
Interview
These people are looking for poorly paid junior/ssr software engineers. They seem scared of people with experience. They also have a crappy process of interviewing with crappy screening, crappy cloding challenge or online coding test and they cannot even pay average market salaries. Was sad to see. Just don't spend a minute with them. People working there told me that everything is a joke and some things looks like a ponzi or they seem to just look to burn investors money somehow.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Ebury (Madrid) in Jan 2025
Interview
The hiring process was entirely online and well-structured. It began with an initial interview with HR, followed by three technical interviews—each conducted by a Team Lead, a Staff Engineer, and the Principal Engineer. Additionally, there was a code challenge to assess technical skills.
The code challenge was conducted on an automated proctoring platform and focused on algorithmic logic. It included four exercises to be completed within one hour. While the challenge was engaging, I felt the time insufficient, and I wasn’t able to finish all the tasks.
The personal interviews were warm and comfortable. They felt more like friendly conversations than technical exams. We discussed my career background, the company’s goals, and how our expectations aligned. This approach made the entire process feel collaborative and less stressful, which I greatly appreciated.

Question 1
About my career: a summary of my experience, the tools and technologies I worked with, my motivations.
Thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback. This helps us to continuously improve and I'm glad to hear that the interview process was a positive experience for you.
There was several steps: first one was an interview with HR, then there is an interview with a technical manager, a project to do at home and then a review of the project.
