      Staff Engineer Interview

      Mar 19, 2019
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Reddit (New York, NY) in Mar 2019

      Interview

      Standard technical phone screen followed by several 45 minute interviews and discussions split over two days. The NYC engineering team is new so many of the technical interviews were conducted remotely. The interviews ranged from standard DS/Algo interviews, system design and open ended discussions with product managers, sales team members and senior engineering managers. Overall I found the process to be organized, professional and friendly. It was much more pleasant than my experience interviewing at Google and Facebook in NYC.

      Staff Engineer Interview

      Apr 24, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Reddit in Apr 2021

      Interview

      Seriously a great experience. Phone screen followed by a virtual onsite the next week. Onsite was 1 coding round, 3 domain knowledge rounds, and close with the hiring manager. Every round had good interviewers asking relevant questions. I ended up taking another opportunity but the interview, team, comp/benefits were all great. I wouldn't hesitate to seriously consider Reddit again next time I'm looking for a new role.
