I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Affirm (New York, NY) in Jan 2025
Interview
First received an OA with 3 leetcode problems. One of them was easy, one DP, and the other was medium. Then recruiter call (the recruiter was super nice) and then two technical rounds and a behavioral with the hiring manager. Long process but the technical interviews are not that hard to pass. Didn't get any crazy DSA questions. The OA was harder than the technical problems in the interviews.

Very fast process with really friendly people. Great interview experience. The process went as such:
1. OA with standard leetcode style questions
2. Recruiter call
3. Technical focused on practical coding
4. Virtual onsite consisting of a behavioural and 2 practical coding technicals

Overall good experience. Recruiter is very helpful along the way. 2 technical rounds and 1 behavioral round. First met with an engineer for the 1st technical and another engineer a few days later for the second round technical followed by a behavioral with a manager.
