First is a short recruiter call. Then she sends you a take home exercise covering general programming. It is in a gradle project that contains extensive test suites. After sending a solution the recruiter responded with a rejection without specifying a reason. This was disappointing because the problems took a fair time to complete and passed the test suite. I followed up and was told I would receive a reason but never did.

Question 1
the first question involved calculating statistics for website visits while the second involved traversing a path in a made up rectangular layout framework.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Squarespace (New York, NY) in Jan 2018
Interview
Before talking with the engineering team they give you a set of 3 programming problems they created that comes with hundreds of test cases you can pit your code against. It takes about a day. After passing their suite of tests and double checking the runtime I forwarded my solution to the recruiter.
I got a rejection email later and asked the recruiter to follow up with what was wrong. She agreed to follow up withe me twice but unfortunately I never heard back. Pretty disappointed to spend time doing a coding exercise before chatting with anyone from engineering.
