First interview was a screening the person was very informative and gave a lot of infomarton on the role and it's capacities. He left ample space for me to ask questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
My background and experience and if I was interested
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fieldguide (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process for Fieldguide's Senior Technical Recruiter opening was fairly standard. Natalie A. was the recruiter assigned to the opening, set expectations, shared insights into the topics interviewers were responsible to cover, and proactively followed up throughout. Everyone came prepared and on time. Good peoples!
Each person I met was empowered, a builder and got ship done. They also asked for process feedback, and I felt that they genuinely cared. They were aligned on the company's mission, spoke proudly of the company/team, and understood how their roles contributed.
Interviews:
- 1) Recruiter Screen
- 2) Hiring Manager 1:1
- 3) 2nd Round: Interviews with CFO, CTO/Co-Founder and Recruiting Deep Dive
I applied online. I interviewed at Fieldguide in Oct 2025
Interview
1) Standard recruiter screen
2) Technical online screen with engineer in coderpad
- screening engineer came off abrupt and not caring about the solution process. - Multiple times I explained a potential solution and why it might not be ideal so that I could then explain a followup solution that should work better, only for the engineer to interrupt me mid-explanation and complain about the solution that I was actively pointing out flaws in
- very short time for an extended problem set (30 min) providing no time for meaningful explanations
- engineer did not have tests sets ready for 2nd part even though it involves creating a class object, wasting my time on instantiating and creating test scenarios in an already limited time environment
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
create a function that takes in an array of ids. Return the ids that were present in the array an odd number of times
Extend the first question by creating a class object that allows for iterative adding of ids to a dynamic array while also tracking the number of times a given id has flipped between even and odd occurrences
