I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Semrush in Jan 2026
Interview
First, an HR interview, explanation about the company and some sanity check questions. Then, tech interview (it was fun!!!). Algorithmic task, task about go, DBs, k8s. No hard questions for sake of hard questions, something that actually happens in the work. Liked it, the interviewers were great, funny and supportive.
