InterviewI applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at ServiceNow in May 2022
I applied online. After about four weeks, I received an email with a link to an online test consisting of two leetcode-style code challenges and some MCQs on algorithms and data structures. After a week, I scheduled a one-hour technical interview where we talked about my student history and after that, the interviewer quizzed me on some theoretical questions and asked me to solve a leetcode-style problem. If I am successful, I will get an interview with the hiring manager.

- 2) Solve a leetcode style problem (i.e. 3Sum)

InterviewI applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ServiceNow
Was told I was leading candidate being submitted. Kept getting delays on status for 3 weeks. Then finally told they hired 2 internal contractors that were already working in the role. This leads me to believe they had no intention of interviewing external candidates and they posted the job just to appear compliant.
