I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Scratchpad in Nov 2022
Interview
Started with 30 min recruiter call. The screening was a 90-minute automated assessment with generic and unhelpful feedback. Assessment gets graded pretty quick. Got an apathetic thank you email a day later.

Interview
Recruiter call, then hiring manager and a technical assessment with Woven. Woven uses a web IDE but it has very poor language support so the coding experience feels like swimming upstream.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The problem wasn't complicated, given an invoice date and a set of usages, compute the total cost. The problem was the programming environment. I should have moved the code to a proper IDE to complete which would have been much more efficient, however I ran out of time dealing with the Woven IDE quirks. Then there's a database problem and system troubleshooting exercises. The database problem is confounded by not providing any details on the sql engine or what functions exist. Some functions did not work. It was frustrating
