I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Skillz (Boston, MA) in Feb 2018
Interview
The process took 2 hours - 1 hour technical, 30 mins past experience, 30 mins behavioral. They contacted me through email first and asked to call me later that week. The call was 30 minutes long, and they didn't ask anything about me -- it was more like they were trying to sell their company to me. The actual technical interview had 6 "fix the bug" questions, which were pretty simple.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Find the bug for the code -- I forget what the questions were, but a lot of them were based on equality and hashcodes and java threads.
Very basic questions, but too many interview rounds (cannot recount how many...cut them short as it was so long, found something else). Mandatory RTO. Be aware of the toxic culture (can be felt within the process and awkward silence when asked about it).
Advice: Read review on Glassdoor before even wasting your time applying.

Question 1
Basic code base question (more "out of university" basic question), more experimented dev might need to polish on old design system and naming for the interview.
phone with recruiter -> partnered coding with dev mostly on multithreading (Java only) -> behavioral round with a manager. Took a month+ to get result which ended with a rejections
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Skillz in Dec 2023
Interview
During one of the calls, I asked for a salary range but wasn't given one. That came off as strange to me as it felt like it was purposely being hidden.
For the coding part, it was multiple different files, each a different question, containing "bad code" or incomplete code that had to be fixed.
