I applied online. I interviewed at HiBob (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Apr 2025
Interview
HR
Technical: The technical interviewer was very kind and respectful, which made the environment feel supportive and less stressful.
That said, I want to emphasize something I learned the hard way:
always read the full instructions of the question carefully before jumping into coding.
In my case, I only realized after the session ended that the instructions included crucial details I had missed.
I take full responsibility for not pausing to clarify and read everything before starting.
However, I also believe the company can improve this part of the process.
The instructions were not explicitly pointed out or emphasized,
and given the format of the interview, a brief prompt from the interviewer to take
a moment to fully read the question could make a big difference, especially for tricky problems.
Overall, it was a fair process and a learning experience for me.
I’d advise other candidates to ask clarifying questions, take a moment to read everything thoroughly,
and not rush into code.

First I spoke on the phone with the HR.
Then I had 2 interviews
First one was design and code
The second one was design
Both interviews had fair questions, from Hibob world and daily work.
Unfortunately it wasn’t my daily work so I didn’t pass.
All the employees in the process was really nice with good vibes
