I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Moon Active (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Jun 2022
Interview
1. Phone interview
2. In-office coding and system design interview (some pen and paper coding, and then designing a game system on a whiteboard. I found the 2 developers interviewing me to be not that nice and not engaging, which I believe is key in that type of interview. They did not "go with the flow" or gave me feedback. I guess I did everything right since I passed and HR said they were impressed, but I did not get that impression IRL)
3. Home assignment (Tic Tac Toe, too long of an assignment IMO)
4. In-office HR interview
5. In-office interview with lead engineer (was very nice and professional)
Ultimately I passed all the interviews but they went with another candidate, citing a lack of experience in Unity.
I also suspect they were not too fond of me asking (respectfully, of course) about the gambling accusations. One of the devs defined himself as a gamer so I asked wether he actually played the game on his free time.
They seem to really want you to actually like the game which is understandable, but tbh unless you're under the age of 10 or over the age of 65 you probably don't, so consider lying or focusing on the aspects of it you like - definitely do your homework and play it a little bit, they expect you to know at least coin master well.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Moon Active (Istanbul) in Sep 2023
Interview
Interview process took about 4-5 phases. At the end, they wanted a scalable solution for a Simon Says game. I implemented a modular, scalable game which benefits from dependency injection, SOLID principles. But the person who created the case PDF and the interviewer (who examined my solution) was not the same person so he found my case "complicated". Weeks of effort and case and they responded via a cold email that says my case was "complicated". After negative response, I asked for more detailed feedback, they said they will provide in a week or two. Didn't hear from them since (it has been 11 months).
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Moon Active in Jan 2024
