I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Dante International (Bucharest, Bucuresti) in Jun 2025
Interview
The process typically involves 2 to 3 main stages:
HR Screening/Intro (Phone/Video): Standard motivational and behavioral questions. Discussion of salary expectations, company culture, and mapping your past projects to eMAG's scale.
Technical Challenge / Take-Home Task: Candidates may receive a short coding assignment (e.g., 2-4 hours) to be completed offline, often focused on practical application of design patterns or database interaction. For Senior roles, this could involve architecting a small microservice or resolving a specific performance problem.
Technical Interview (Live with Team Leads/Managers): This is a critical 60-90 minute session focused on deep PHP knowledge, system design, and problem-solving. This is where most candidates report the difficulty level increases.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dante International (Iaşi) in Apr 2022

The steps of the interview process were:
- Interview with some from the HR department
