I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Credit Karma (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2015
Interview
Phone call with HR followed by a phone call with Hiring Manager/Director a few days later. An in person interview was scheduled a few days later. I had to reschedule a couple of times and they were extremely understanding and gracious and allowed me to reschedule at my convenience.
The in person interview lasted a little over 3 hours. The goodies bag was definitely new to me and was very thoughtful of them. I was given a tour of their office and then had a technical coding exercise session followed by a general skills review session with extra stress on unit testing. A round with the HR which was more informational and then finally a session with the hiring director which was also very informational with some high level application scalability and agile software process questions thrown in.
Overall, a very good experience and Credit Karma gets my kudos for the way they treated me throughout the process.
Once the offer was accepted, the screening process for background and references took an additional 2 weeks.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Credit Karma (Charlotte, NC) in Sep 2022
Interview
The process involved a preliminary HR screen, a technical overview discussion, and then a series of coding assessments and a design architecture exercise. Overall it took a couple of weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The coding assessments focused on standard JS patterns - knowing basics of algorithms, array handling, etc. Having a fundamental grasp on JS/TS should take you through these comfortably. The design exercise was more subjective and covered optimization, performance, etc.

Had a call with the recruiter. She only asked me questions like why Credit Karma and what impact do you want to make on the company. Didn't get to the next round, I feel its unfair that my experience and work was not taken into consideration.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Credit Karma
Interview
Let me tell you CK recruiters are unprofessional the way they conduct themselves and even in the email. No respect for you. The recruiter contacted me and we had initial call. He setup initial phone screen. I asked recruiter what will be the format of phone screen. He answered generically it'd be DSA question so, prepare accordingly. Coming to my phone screen the manager who was supposed to take interview didn't join and some mid level engineer joined after 10 minutes. Instead of asking DSA question he copy pasted some long Java Design question which had 3 sub questions. I got 2 of them right. But, for 3rd one was not passing the test interviewer created because the interviewer himself was not of Java background and got confused about float and double. 2 days later as usual general email of rejection. I told recruiter what had happened and when I can apply again but, didn't get any reply. I have gone through FAANG interview process and they have recruiters who are so, professional and friendly. They provide the feedback and something goes wrong they'd try to help you. But, CK is no match of FAANG when it comes to recruiting process.
