I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Flatiron Health in Jul 2019
Interview
I applied for the job online and a few days later received an automated email telling me to sign up for a third party interview.
Took a video conference call (where the video portion didn't work, so we just spoke on the phone) with the third party. Developed some code with an interviewer. Received an automated rejection a few days later.
Never once spoke to an employee at Flatiron about the company or my background.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Third party asks some great practical questions involving skeleton code and implementing some feature. For example, implement a function that when given a 2D array of 1's and 0's returns the width, height, and starting points of a rectangle (being represented by 1's).
I had an online assessment first after applying, and after I passed it there was a pair programming session with one of their engineers. The online assessment was more difficult, the pair programming was more practical.
Very long and weird process, you do all the interviews together and then you get the results at the end. You might not get hired because of the feedback of any interview but you still do all of them and I find that such a waste of time.
