I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fleetster (Munich, Bavaria) in Aug 2023
Interview
The interview process was structured into three main parts: Initial Exchange on the Job: This was a brief conversation where the primary goal was mutual understanding. The interviewer aimed to grasp my background, aspirations, and what I was expecting from the role. Concurrently, they provided me with a clear picture of what the role entailed and what the company expected from the candidate. It was an open dialogue, and I felt comfortable asking questions which were answered transparently. Coding Challenge & Technical Interview: After the initial discussion, I was presented with a coding challenge. Interestingly, the challenge was not so much about testing my programming knowledge but rather to understand my way of thinking and gauge my problem-solving skills. The subsequent technical interview allowed us to delve into my solution and explore other technical topics. The nature of the challenge provided insights into the company's emphasis on analytical and solution-oriented thinking. Pair Programming Day: The final stage was a day dedicated to pair programming. I had the opportunity to work alongside three different developers from the company. This not only allowed me to showcase my practical skills but also gave me a firsthand experience of the company's working style, the team dynamics, and the tools they use. It was an enriching experience as I felt I was already a part of the team, albeit briefly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
While I can't recall a specific question word-for-word, the emphasis during the interview was on problem-solving and analytical thinking. The questions were designed more to understand my approach to challenges rather than just testing specific programming knowledge. It felt like they were keen on understanding how I think and approach various technical scenarios.
