J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez HubSpot (Cambridge, MA) en oct. 2017
Entretien
This went from positive experience to a negative one real fast. After a phone call with a recruiter, a coding challenge was sent to me. It was the three hour coding challenge where you had to make an API. I was able to finish most of the code in about an hour and half, took me another hour to solve a small error. So I was able to finish the whole thing under three hours. I received the 200 status and a congrats message. However, a few days alter I received an automated rejection email from the recruiter. I asked for feedback and an explanation, the recruiter ignored me. The recruiter was always good with responding beforehand. This is the most negative experience that I have had in my job hunt. A total waste of time and energy.
J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. J'ai passé un entretien chez HubSpot (Londres, Angleterre)
Entretien
I went through several rounds, including an initial screening, a technical assessment, and follow-up interviews. The process was well structured, but I found the technical part challenging because it required both problem-solving and clear communication under time pressure. The interviewers were professional, and the questions were relevant to the role. Although I did not receive an offer, the experience was still valuable and helped me understand the company’s expectations better.

J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez HubSpot (Dublin, Dublin)
Entretien
Consists of an Online Assessment, followed by 3 rounds (2 System Design, 1 coding)
One of the System Design interviewer was less experienced (with an experienced shadow interviewer). I feel like they didn't drive it correctly, didn't ask me the right follow-up questions and eventually gave negative feedback.
