I applied online. I interviewed at MailerLite in Feb 2019
Interview
The company provides tools for email marketing, and to apply for the job, I had to send them email via their service. So no need for up to date CV, which I appreciated. After that I had 1:1 video call with the founder/CEO. We had about 30min long, friendly discussion, no BS questions, mostly talking about technical stuff of my side project which I've mentioned in the email. Week later I've received an email that I'm one of the two finalists and we received a programming assignment. The assignment itself was related to actual work/project, not some tricky puzzle. Overall, very good experience.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at MailerLite (Vilnius) in Aug 2019
Interview
The interview was really smooth and interesting.
First of all, instead of sending them my CV, they wanted me to send a newsletter built with their own tool, which I thought is a great idea. Got a reply the very next day, that they are reviewing the applications and will get back to me. Couple more days passed and I received a code test, which was interesting and relevant to what I was applying for.
Couple of days after that, they contacted me to setup a video call (the position was remote) with the CEO, and we had a chat the very next day. All of this happened in 1 week, which was really, really fast compared to other companies.
After that, they took a couple of more weeks to make a decision, but kept me updated throughout the process. Honestly the best interview process I have ever had.
