- Round 1: talking with the Engineering Manager + an Engineer
- Round 2: take-home test. HR will give you 3 options, whether backend, frontend or solving problems on Hackerrank. I took the backend test. The requirement: a lib that is half-done by someone else, you need to find bugs (if any) and finish the lib.
- Round 3: System Design. They asked about price alert notifications.
- Round 4: HR inform the result

Tl;dr: Do not trust this company! Their offers aren’t worth anything!
A recruiter reached out to me about a job which I interviewed for. The process was alright and they were generally quite responsive and engaged. They made me a offer which I accepted and I left my previous job.
Then, 4 days before I was meant to start they announced some redundancies and rescinded my job offer. Since then they have not been very responsive and still haven’t provided details about what/if any financial compensation they will provide for their breach of employment contract.

My interview process had a total of 3 stages, and took approximately a month from beginning to end. I had the chance to meet several members of the team I was applying for, and given plenty of room to ask questions about where the company is and where it's going.
The technical test went smoothly and despite being quite easy, still enables the applicant to be as detailed or as cheap as they want. "Completing" the test isn't really a thing, as quality counts more than how quick you can get through it.
Overall I'm very happy with how communicative my recruiter was and am excited to now be part of the team.
