I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Airwallex (Melbourne) in Aug 2024
Interview
The interview process was OK. Two software engineers were friendly and respectful. They gave me some suggestions when I was stuck with the problem. They also gave me some feedback on how to improve my skills in the future.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was given 2 medium LeetCode questions: the first one was a Discrete Math and sorting algorithm problem, and the second one was about using a Stack. Also, I was asked to talk about a project that I was most confident with.
The online assessment was neutral. It has a range of questions from the company's history, value, to Python and SQL. Also, some system design questions, probability, and brainstorming. After that you'll be invited to have a chat with a team member for 15 mins. Then is the live coding for 1 hour.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Airwallex (Sydney) in Jul 2021
Interview
1.Phone interview - basic questions plus some easy time complexity questions.
2.Take home programming project.
TLDR: Pretty unprofessional, delayed email responses. Zero feedback after giving time and effort to complete their challenge.
They had sent me the challenge but outlook recognised it as spam so I didnt see it. After letting the recruiter know, she didn't give me response until 3 follow up emails and days later. She then gave me 4 days as opposed to the 7 days previously to complete it. Which was ok because it wasn't that hard. After completing challenge, which took about 4 hours - I received a 'offer' email 1 week later. The recruiter then emailed saying it was a mistake. Recruiter later emailed after 1 additional week of waiting saying I didn't make it. I asked for feedback on my code, no response.

Question 1
You are given a java/kotlin skeleton file, although you can use any language you want so long as you describe how to run it. The technical take home was to read a json.line file and scan for a 10% change (+/-) in the 5 minute average of any currency pair Eg: aud/usd read.
