I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Groupon (Bengaluru)
Interview
Very unprofessional HR and management. When candidate invests 7 to 8 hours giving interviews, HR and management do not even have basic ethics to inform the outcome of process even after several follow ups and reminders. They dont even take calls once interviews done. Groupon HR - please learn to value the time of candidates. It wont take even 2 mins to send yes or no mail. The process involves several face to face rounds, phone screens and skype calls. The panel is friendly and co-operative.
Coderbyte test, Problem Solving Coding Data Structures, Low Level Design +High Level Design Database design class modelling , Hiring Manager discussion around behaviour and technical skills. Difficulty level medium to hard
I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Groupon in June 2023
Interview
The process was like any other organization. It was fine. Nothing much to explain. It started with HR Discussion, followed by Technical Round which was about 45 minutes. Overall process was Satisfactory

I had a virtual on-site, it was long with multiple rounds. One round involved coding; another round involved debugging an application. Overall friendly but depends on who you interview with.
