Previously at Uber, Skyscanner, Skype/Microsoft. I love to help people grow and share what I learned. I write longer articles on software engineering at blog.pragmaticengineer.com.
Each company has their own interview process: but most are pretty similar in their elements that you can prepare for. This is based on both my experience working at different companies, talking with multiple tech recruiters who have worked at dozens at different companies (from the FANG ones to unicorns, startups or at non-tech companies hiring developers), and taking with agencies who advise companies on their recruitment processes.
Most developer interview processes consist of an CV review, an initial phone screen (recruiter or hiring manager), a technical phone screen and the on-site with 2-6 interviews. The one thing that is a variable is a take home and/or coding challenge before the onsite, at different parts in some companies’ process.
I’d love to hear your experience with the interview process though. Do you see any similarities between processes or do they all seem different?
