J'ai passé un entretien chez Marqeta (Vancouver, BC)
Entretien
The interview process was well structured. Each and every step was outlined perfectly in the introduction and everything followed a definite timeline. I really appreciate the clarity and the standards they set during the initial stages of the interview.

Entretien
Recruiter call, followed by a screen share coding round and a Hiring manager interview.( interviewers were really friendly and giving the pointers on the approach ).
Recruiter reached out to schedule 3 more rounds ( 2 behavioural 45 mins each ) and a system design ( screen share - Lucid chart ).
Overall process took 2.5 weeks and the recruiter gives immediate feedback after each round ( without wasting much time). It was a very smooth process.

Entretien
I had a job interview with Marqeta, and after talking to the recruiter, I was invited to the next stage, which was an online coding test. I was asked to design an LRU cache, which I did completely and tested as well.
The next day, I received a rejection letter with reasons that were not convincing at all. I felt that the decisions were very subjective and not based on clear principles and rules.
I feel like I wasted my energy and time.
