I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robinhood (Menlo Park, CA) in Jul 2018
Interview
They called and wanted to extend an offer, but if I want to know the specific numbers, the offer will expire in a week (to take away my negotiation power and low ball me obviously). I waited less than a week and then reached out for the offer details. Then I was told the offer was rescinded due to "business priority shifts and thus headcount freeze".
It is likely that they extend multiple offers and the first taker (taking the lowest bid) wins. I suggest that you not waste your time with them. I am not sure if a whimsical company with such kind of practice will look out for its employees at all.
The recruiter said I passed all the interviews, takes me to HM round, says I did great and then tells me can't push out an offer quickly so would keep me under consideration for 6-8 months, like wtf?
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Robinhood (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2026
Interview
Very laidback interview process. The recruiter screen was smooth and professional. The recruiter screening was followed by 1 hour technical phone interview. Did not progress to final Virtual Onsite rounds.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Was asked a graph question. It involved DFS + memoization. Asked for hints didn’t get any. At the end interviewer tried to explain the solution (don’t know why) but could not explain and gave vague answer.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robinhood (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2026
Interview
I initially got a recrutier call and 1 coding leetcode style technical screen round. The interview process was good. The recruiter and the person taking my technical round was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, couldn't go past the technical screen. Was able to code the solution but got errors running code. got rejection email just 30 min after interview ended.
