Speechify interview questions

Three live interview tests with a couple of general interviews in the middle - Vibe coding test (They gave you a broken repo and 5 goals then you have to do whatever you can to fix all of it within 90 minutes) - Live coding test without any aid (Coding a problem in a web GUI) - System design (General system design interview, In my case it's designing a realtime AI) Was a bit surprised to see vibe coding skills being tested. I guess it's keeping up with the technology and how engineers work nowadays.

Applied online through linkedin, instantly got an email about a technical interview that needed to be scheduled. The initial technical interview is a screening interview where you are required to share your screen and use your webcam. There is nobody in the interview with you. I was given 90 minutes to clone a repo, setup the local environment and then read through the task list of 5 tasks. The tasks themselves are essentially what you would be assigned as a ticket to fix bugs and optimize. However for someone who wants to figure out the codebase first before tackling tasks, having a 90 minute countdown is not helpful. They are essentially having you do the job of a developer but from day 1 with zero onboarding. They did allow AI usage but I am not here to be tested on my prompting ability, so I left after 30 minutes and did not complete the assessment Personally, its possible that this role was out of my capabilities, or it was just not meant for people who prefer to fully understand a codebase before making changes without relying on AI
