I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Polly (Portland, ME) in Sep 2021
Interview
To be honest, I found this job lower paying than the others I was applying to, yet way more requirements in terms of technical interview questions/assessments. The initial screening was 90% technical , <10% behavioral. Then they send a technical assessment on unit tests despite my honesty in having very little experience with constructing unit tests. I did not complete the assessment as I had other offers from higher paying companies by the time it was sent. In my opinion if the pay isn't as competitive , then the interviews should not be as demanding in my humble opinion. Did not feel sold on the culture or what's in it for me at all so it was a miss for me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. How would you describe a RESTful API to a non technical person
2. Describe what a unit test is and its importance
I got a phone call that went well and then was ghosted. Completely unprofessional company that cares only about themselves. If this is how they treat people when interviewing I'm glad that I did not get a job there.
The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Polly (New York, NY)
Interview
One phone call, one team interview. Use bait and switch methods ruthlessly to give an impression of being easygoing, when they are anything but.
Interview process doesn't assess your actual skills at all (maybe general knowledge), so be prepared to be let go if you end not meeting their demands. Multiple people have gone this way in the past year, which is a lot for a company this size.
