I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DraftKings (Boston, MA)
Interview
Applied through Handshake, got an email for a phone screen with a recruiter a few days later. That went well, it was mostly just going through my resume and other basic behavioral questions. They told me by the end of the interview I'd be moving on to the technical phone interview. For that, there was a pretty basic problem on creating a class system for storing fantasy football entries. Got a call a few minutes after it was over that I would be moving on to the on-site interviews. It consisted of three different hour long interviews with current developers, one being coding, one object-oriented design, and one behavioral. The coding was another straight forward fantasy football based problem on validating lineups, the behavioral was mostly describing in depth different choices I made on past projects on my resume, and the object oriented design was designing a system on a white board. There also some fun events planned for other new-grads the whole weekend, including free food and drinks. About a week later, got a call to go over feedback from my interviews, and found out that while I did well on the coding and behavioral, I didn't do as well on the design, so I would not be getting the job. Overall a really good experience though, they handled every step of the way pretty well.

I applied online. I interviewed at DraftKings (Boston, MA) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process was fairly straightforward - after the screening and technical interview they put you in a 3 hour final round with three separate interviews back-to-back, the last one being a chat with the team lead. The recruiter was nice and helpful throughout the process.

The whole process was very friendly.
HR provided comfortable and on-time communication and interview arrangements.
Interviewers were professional, basically, but not all of them would like to help during the interviews.
