      Software Engineer, Backend Interview

      Jun 23, 2020
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Informed (San Francisco, CA) in May 2020

      Interview

      The interview process was a short coding quiz, followed by a 45 minute technical phone screen, and then a full day remote onsite (due to COVID-19). Everyone I spoke to was incredibly nice, intelligent, and cared deeply about the mission of the company.

      Software Engineer, Backend Interview

      Apr 2, 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mountain View, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Informed (Mountain View, CA) in Mar 2020

      Interview

      It was the longest process I have gone too. There was a 30-45 minutes long triple byte quiz. Then there was a 30-minute call for the introduction. Then, after a few days, there was a 45 min phone interview . After clearing the interview, I was asked to make a project for them which took more than half a day to make. Then after a few weeks, there was a remote onsite(due to coronavirus) which was the longest onsite interview I have ever had. There were 10 rounds of interviews. In my overall experience through the process, I think they have an unnecessarily very long interview process and don't have good standards for interviewing. I received some very silly feedbacks for my interviews that went quite well. I would suggest if you have a lot of free time, you may try to go through their process. However, if you are very busy with some serious job search please don't waste time on this one, there are much better options out there. Their interview process is the weirdest one I have ever been through, and after wasting a lot of time they gave some of silliest reasons not to consider me and I was frustrated and angry to have spent time with them.
