I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (New York, NY) in Feb 2023
Interview
First round - take home test that can be passed pretty easily if you can point out the details. Best of you explain yourself well.
Panel Interview - Was with lead and team member. Pretty standard theoretical questions. I'll add examples below.
Overall - My negative experience comes from the disconnect from their emphasis on their culture and how the interview was conducted. They preach transperency, and openness but the interview lacked that. I had a few questions where I was open, and honest but still within their expectations. The issue occurred when the interviewer took small details of my response and paraphrased it but with a negative spin. In efforts to keep things running smooth, I adjusted my answers. Of about (guessing) 10 questions, about 3 of them were what felt like trick questions which led to the interviewer twisting my words.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How would you change our process for the betterment of the customer?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Singapore) in Sept 2025
Interview
It was a 1hr 30mins interview, fully prepare yourself to be asked on payment operations, as well as general questions. There would only be 1 break in between the questioning. Do not expect to be hired and also to have an answer to why you were not chosen.
Process took 1 month and there was no reply from the HR team when ask what is the outcome of the interview, only receive an automated response after 2 weeks later
Take home test -> 2 rounds of interviews
Take home test was pretty simple, after that I was offered an interview within a week. They mentioned the second round of interviews would take place in the same week, but I failed to progress past the first interview stage.
