I applied for the Software Developer position and was contacted by the recruiter for an initial discussion. The interview process consisted of an HR screening followed by a technical interview with the hiring manager and development team. The interview focused on my experience with software development, problem-solving skills, project experience, and technical knowledge. The atmosphere was professional and friendly, and I was given the opportunity to ask questions about the role and company. The entire process took approximately two weeks from the first contact to the final outcome.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you describe a challenging project you worked on and how you solved the technical issues involved?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Noom (Princeton, NJ)
Interview
Reached the final on-site stage, which included a technical interview and a planned meeting with the CTO.
The recruiting process up to that point was positive—the recruiter was responsive and professional, and both engineers I met during earlier rounds were approachable and respectful.
However, the on-site experience was inconsistent with expectations. The technical interview was intended to be conducted with an engineer, followed by a separate discussion with the CTO. Instead, the CTO joined midway through the technical session, appeared disengaged, and did not participate in the initial introduction. During the exercise, I made a minor syntax error; although the overall approach and solution were optimal, I was advised to use AI tools to explore alternatives.
When I referenced the planned follow-up conversation, I was informed that there would be no separate meeting, and the interview was concluded abruptly with general advice to continue practicing.
Overall, the experience felt disjointed and somewhat unprofessional, particularly given the lack of structure and deviation from the communicated interview process.
I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Noom (Princeton, NJ) in Jun 2025
Interview
Meeting with HR, positive experience. Recruiter was nice and gave good advice/information. 2 technical interviews after, definitely have good proficiency in OOP and DSA. I don't know what else to say for the 30 word minimum, didn't receive an offer.

Question 1
General behavioral questions, talk about yourself and past experiences. Recruiter goes through your resume and asks about different projects that you've been a part of.
