J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez HubSpot en mai 2020
Entretien
First a recruiter reached out to me about the role and after I expressed interest, had a phone screen within a few days to talk about what I'm looking for, some previous experience, preferred tech stack, why HubSpot, etc. The next step was completing a timed online coding assessment, in which applicants were allowed to use any language. I believe you need to complete the challenge in time in order to proceed with the interview process (thankfully I did!). Took me a few days to hear back from the recruiter so I was nervous!! but finally I heard back and scheduled the virtual on-site interview (virtual bc 2020..)
The final interview took place over multiple back-to-back Zoom sessions (4-5 hours) with 6-8 different interviewers. In summary, the different parts were something like:
- 1st technical portion (some coding related to general JS knowledge)
- Discuss previous work experience/projects with Engineering Lead
- 2nd technical portion (more in-depth coding, problem solving, involved some data structure/complexity knowledge)
- Product-related prompt (based on a doc I received a few days prior to prep). This portion was unique compared to other interviews and I liked it a lot, as it gave me insight into the kind of work and gave interviewers insight into the way I think and approach problems in more than a purely technical way.
- Q/A wrap up with recruiter
All my interviewers were great and personalities ranged from generally friendly to very friendly and enthusiastic.

Entretien
I went through several rounds, including an initial screening, a technical assessment, and follow-up interviews. The process was well structured, but I found the technical part challenging because it required both problem-solving and clear communication under time pressure. The interviewers were professional, and the questions were relevant to the role. Although I did not receive an offer, the experience was still valuable and helped me understand the company’s expectations better.

J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez HubSpot (Dublin, Dublin)
Entretien
Consists of an Online Assessment, followed by 3 rounds (2 System Design, 1 coding)
One of the System Design interviewer was less experienced (with an experienced shadow interviewer). I feel like they didn't drive it correctly, didn't ask me the right follow-up questions and eventually gave negative feedback.
