I applied online. I interviewed at Etsy (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied online to college-specific posting. Interviewed with software engineer via Skype, who asked primarily about previous project experience, a few basic web dev questions. Then, was invited to NYC office for a fully day of interviews with several other candidates. Interview day was a really pleasant experience and included a tour of their beautiful office, free food, and informal conversations about technical challenges. 30-minute interviews with three software engineers asking basic coding questions, background/experience questions, and delving deep into the candidate's technical prowess. Overall, a fantastic experience!
Fast and seamless. They were really nice and made sure that I understood each part of the process fully. They also showed a lot of care and answered all of my questions regarding the interview process and the culture itself.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Etsy (Brooklyn, NY)
Interview
I first completed an online assessment, which consisted of adding multiple features and functionality to an existing Express.js app. Then, for the onsite interview, I had a behavioral interview with an engineer, a technical interview with another engineer, and then finally followed by a chat with the recruiter and a tour around the office.

Question 1
The on-site technical question consisted of debugging an existing codebase in Flask. It wasn't as much of a data structures/algorithms question as much as it was just trying to see how well you were able to understand and adapt to an existing codebase in a framework that you are expected to have no experience in.
