I applied online. I interviewed at Justworks (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
A recruiter reached out to me, reading a scripted laundry list of job requirements, or what the hiring manager or tech lead was looking for in this position. She barely asked me any "screening" type questions - a bit odd but I moved onto the next stage with hiring manager. It was a 45 minute call with this hiring manager - during this time, he was looking at his cell phone (and one could say I was rambling, but I highly disagree) because he looked distracted and completely preoccupied with his phone / eyes gazing left and right. Never heard from the recruiter again & she didn't answer my email regarding a clarifying some job specifics. Overall, for this role, they seem a bit disorganized, overwhelmed and disjointed. Didn't seem entirely sure of who or what they were looking for. At the end of the interview (regardless of the ghosting or not), I was not too enthusiastic about this position and had it already written off. Long story short, be aware of the ghosting and seemingly distracted interviewees. Interview at your discretion.

The interview experience was positive and well-organized. The interviewer was professional and clearly explained the role, team structure, and expectations. The conversation was informative and provided helpful insight into the company and its interview process.

Interview
First call was with a senior engineer asking HR questions? Code signal assessment afterwards which asked you to do a lot in under 90 mins. Using map of maps, sorting, lots of tedious things. You have to finish each question in order (no skipping around). Did not even have to decency to send an automated rejection email. Just ghosted me after. Don’t waste your time.

Interview
1. Recruiter Call
2. Online Assessment
3. Hiring Manager Call
4. ~4 hour Onsite
It was lengthy, and honestly I feel if you are going to have a long interview process, then you might as well split the 4 hour interview into multiple days, and make it online, with a shorter onsite.

Question 1
Typical Behavioral Questions
For the tech questions, they're pretty easy, dont overthink it. I feel nerves will play a bigger factor than difficulty.
