I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Nav in Mar 2023
Interview
1. Applied online.
2. Talent acquisition reached out to me for a phone screen. Phone screen was pleasant - scheduled me for a pair programming assessment with a few SWEs.
3. 1hr pair programming assessment in language of choice. 3 person panel. 1 interviewer and 2 shadows.
4. Talent acquisition reached out to me shortly after the interview to see how it went. I gave my thoughts and they responded immediately - happy everything went smooth.
5. 30mins after talent acquisition responded I received a generic no-reply rejection email.
LMAO!
