Application
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Improbable (London, England)
Interview
Two types: - Interviews with leads (1 behavioural, 1 to know previous work experience, 1 technical about the area of interview) - Interview where I had to present some work I am proud of (describing challenges, issues, solutions)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did you deal with not getting along with a coworker? How did you find a solution to this specific technical problem? How would you architect this new system?
The interviewing process consisted of quite a lot of steps but everything was moving very fast. Everybody at the company I spoke to was incredibly nice, professional, and helpful in every aspect possible. The HR team made sure to organize regular calls to keep me updated on what was happening. Here are the parts of the interviewing process: - Initial chat with the HR, talking about prior experiences and the company mission. - A screening interview with the hiring manager, talking about previous experiences and projects in a more in-depth, technical manner - A quick tech screening interview with a simple React assignment. - A 2-hour technical interview, designing a slightly more complex React app. - A final interview with the CEO, talking more about the company's mission and my motivations for joining the company.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Improbable (London, England) in Aug 2020
Interview
The interview got scheduled in London. They flew me onsite to have a round of interviews. Technical, behavioural and meeting the team over the lunch. Overall I had very positive experience.
I didn't get hired because of the lack of examples on conflicts and working under strict deadlines.
