I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CARET in Oct 2020
Interview
I applied for software developer position in september 2020. After 2 weeks, I had a Call with HR. After that I had another video interview with hiring team and then a technical challenge. This whole process took more than a month. Since then I have not heard from them regarding the hiring decision. I followed up with HR 3 times. She replied on 2 occasions that hiring team is extremely busy. That was such a lame excuse of ignoring candidates. They are literally wasting time of candidates. They have no regards or empathy for people applying for positions at this truly unprofessional organization. I would recommend anyone applying here for any roles not to apply as its a total disappointment and even if you get the offer, this unprofessional behaviour would mean things would be even more complicated once you are working with them. Good luck to the new hires.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No difficult question. Mostly normal behavioural questions as well as some technical questions
First let you introduce yourself and what did you do and what you are good at. And then ask about what kind of languages and tools for your previous projects. Ask some questions about SQL, database, and also Javascript and NodeJS, system design
I interviewed at CARET (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2018
Interview
For the open hiring event, they gathered everyone in the room, a CEO spoke for an hour and had a tour around the company. The fault was: they were trying to hire "nerds" and "technology people". However, a CEO came in and talked for a long time. If this was purely a business open hire, I would've understood the purpose of the talk. However, the audience consisted mostly of software engineer and data analyst looking people. Hence, some people (including me) got really bored and distracted. So if you do go to another open hire for "technology people", "nerds" or "people interested in technology", know that you're risking hearing the CEO talk for over an hour.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me to do a "homework", which were three questions: "a personal statements", "what will I gain from this and how does it contribute to my personal pursuit of purpose", and "why hire yourself and when".
