I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SimilarWeb (Prague) in Apr 2024
Interview
The interview process would be what you would expect for your role.
1. HR Call
2. Tech interview relevant to your role stack
3. Tech interview Logical and Algorithms
4 . Manager Call
5. Offer
What I liked about the interview was that there was no BS, The questions and the tasks made sense as to why they were being asked, not some create a new Encryption algorithm that is 1-way encryption and uses a 3-step verification process or whatever.
Home assignment - called "Sessionizing":
a program that is initialized with data that they provide (CSB files) and need to support 3 types of queries. I filed a program which I worked on for many hours. The guy who checked it said it wasn't good enough. I strongly disagree with him. The points he wrote were not a complete true but something to discuss, BUT he didn't let me the opportunity to explain myself, but instead he decided.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at SimilarWeb (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Mar 2018
Interview
1)Short phone interview talking about the stack technologies and expectations
2)Onsite interview with the team lead
the interview with the team lead was awful, she didn't explain what they are doing and got out from the room for long time in the middle of the interview. She was very short and arrogant, so I stopped the process.
