      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Pearson in Feb 2026

      Interview

      First had a screening call with a Pearson recruiter. Technical interview was a deep technical conversation about resume and previous work experience with Tech Lead and Senior Software Engineer. I was expecting live coding based on conversations with the recruiter but it was largely just technical discussions.

      Initial recruiter screen for about 15 minutes. Then 1 hour panel interview (when it said only one person would be on the call in the inital invite), with technical questions on stuff on your resume, brain teaser, leetcode (didn't have time for this part), and behavioral/cultural questions at the end. Got ghosted after this
