I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hubs (Amsterdam)
Interview
The technical rounds were fair, more about problem solving than trick questions. Most questions were asked about the home tasks and felt very conversational. HR was helpful, she kept me updated what to expect at each step.

Question 1
Most questions were from the home task. Why this and not that?
Had a standard 30 min screening call with team leader, did a simple take-home task. Then there was a code review interview, then there was a system design session, then there was an interview with the CTO, then a culture fit interview, then I received a standard rejection letter with no explanation.

Thanks for your feedback, we are more than happy to give additional feedback to you. Please reach out to us with your name, and we will make sure to get it for you. Thanks a lot for your review. It's really helpful for us to see them, because it allows us to follow up and respond. I'm sorry to hear that you did not get any responses after you made your interview, this is really unlike us. We would of course like to get to the bottom of it. If you can reach back out to the recruitment team then we will certainly pick this up right away to make sure you get the feedback you deserve (I promise to you this is not the experience we want you or any of our candidates to come away with and only apologies we messed up this time) Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Take care!
All the best for the future!
I applied online. I interviewed at Hubs (Amsterdam) in Dec 2020
Interview
The interview process consistest of four stages:
1. Interview with HR, where they get to know you a little bit and you get to ask questions about what does 3D hubs do, etc.
2. Interview with two elements of the engineering team, where you describe your experience and they ask questions about what you did, problems you had, what you most liked to do and why. They were very nice and it was a very chill conversation.
3. If the previous interview is successful you do a test, which you have a week to finish if I'm not mistaken. It was a web app where you could play the hangman and you have to implement the guess function, do tests, etc. It was easy IMO (I'm a junior).
4. After that, you have one interview where you discuss the test and your choices, it was chill. Also, you have an architectural interview where they give you a problem and you need to design the system for that problem, i.e., which database would you use, the data model, the communication between front and back-end.
