I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Respawn Entertainment in May 2022
Interview
The interview process was very intimate, and I talked directly to the lead engineer. The interview was a small team for the now cancelled Jedi FPS game. Afterwards, the recruiter was on vacation and never got back to me, I didn't bother emailing to remind them.

Interview
Two virtual interviews - one tech related, one just a personal interview, both with two interviewers. The interviewers were all very nice, kept the interview feeling very relaxed so while I was still nervous, that did relieve some tension. While there were tech leads, I don't think there were any managers necessarily, so that also helped. By far one of the best interview experiences I've ever had.

Question 1
Questions related to 3D math, rendering techniques, multithreading, and C++ fundamentals. Questions asked were related to what would be done on the job, and not some random leetcode stuff that you would never do in the workplace.

Interview
I had a non-technical phone interview. The interviewer was nice. Was given a week to finish coding test on Hackerank with 4 parts. First three parts were easy. Last one was tricky because you have to make the code efficient to run on Hackerank.
