Application

I applied through college or university. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Simply Hired.

Interview

Had an initial phone interview that was largely technical but relatively easy and then an on-site interview that involved three technical questions that I found pretty hard. They said they'd take one week to get back to me after the on-site interview but it took them a couple weeks. I was unfortunately rejected but not surprised as I was not aware of some of the data structures asked during the on-site interview.

Application

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at Simply Hired (Sunnyvale, CA) in March 2015.

Interview

The process starts with a 30-45 technical screen with a member of the engineering team or an Lead. The Engineering lead I spoke to was very friendly and told me about the projects they work on and the team structure. After that your then given a coding exercise. The Eng lead gave me some hints here and there and I was able to solve the problem. I was told I'd hear from the recruiter for next steps.

After that, I was immediately contacted by the recruiter for an onsite interview. In the onsite, I met with 3 engineers and again it was all technical questions. What stood apart for me was that everyone that I met, was personable. I've been on interviews where the engineering team have been rude and even arrogant. It's not the case at Simply Hired.

After the first round, I was called back in for a final round to meet with the VP of Engineering, CEO, and Sr. Director of HR. I was nervous but I was asked basic questions on what I can contribute to the company and why I want to work here. (These interviews I wasn't asked to do any coding exercises.)

After that, I heard from the recruiter that they would like to give me an offer. All in all, the process was faster than most other companies that I interviewed. I really just loved the energy of the Engineering team and the fact that everyone that I met seemed passionate about the work they do. I've been working here for a couple months now and I feel like the work I do here is meangingful!

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Simply Hired (Sunnyvale, CA) in February 2015.

Interview

2 shorter phone interviews (~15 min.) that led up to 1 longer in-person interview (2 hours) where I met with the 3 people that I would be working with upon getting hired.

Interview questions were relatively easy and straightforward; nothing came up that I hadn't prepared for by practicing my responses and by researching the people who would be interviewing.

There was 1 skills test involved where I was put into a scenario that I would often face on the job. The test involved analyzing data, preparing the information into a PowerPoint and then giving a talking script to be used by a sales team individual.

Interview

very low key, a single phone screen with a senior manager, and a five-person on-site interview; after the in-house recruiter told me they were interested, it took them three weeks to schedule the first telephone interview, which gave me a bad impression; however, once that was complete, the rest of the process moved fairly quickly.
