I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Affirm (San Francisco, CA) in Sept 2019
Interview
I am a new grad and I did a hackerrank to get in contact with a recruiter. I then did a phone coding interview. After it got feedback, I was then sent onsite for 3 coding interviews, a Product interview, and a Hiring Manager interview. The process was very smooth overall and I would recommend applying.
I interviewed at Affirm (Valencia, Valencian Community)
Interview

Question 1

Took roughly 2 months total. Recruiter was very fast to respond and the interviewers were all very nice and collaborative during the interview. Typical HR call, two technical rounds, and behavorial round.
Live coding #1 focuses on algorithms and data structures, testing problem-solving skills and efficiency. Live coding #2 emphasizes coding challenges and practical problem-solving. The behavioral round assesses experience, teamwork, and culture fit.
