J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez MongoDB (Dublin, Dublin) en août 2021
Entretien
Had a chat with several people from different areas. In the last 3 rounds (among 6), I ended up going well on the first (coding), on the second, had a chit-chat with a manager and in the final one they had sent me a wrong link for the meeting. I ended up arriving 10 minutes later because I had to come back to the HR asking for the correct one. Although I solved the problem for the last round (even with less time), I never heard back from MongoDB.
I totally lost my respect for the company. It seems it is part of the culture to ghost candidates - and according to Glassdoor, that seems to happen pretty often.
A total waste of time and energy.
After 6 rounds of interviews, being "ditched" without any single word from them sounds very unprofessional and, at the same time, a coward act.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Easy and Medium LT questions and few soft skills related, nothing out of this planet tbh.
Interviewer had a particular solution in mind that took a different approach from my own. My solution was algorithmically correct but not one that they were familiar with and preferred a non-closed form solution.

Question 1

Entretien
Process was: Recruiter screening, Phone Screen, 5 Virtual Onsite. The whole process took a long time. I loved each interviewer, they were really friendly, nice and passionate with their work. The interview questions were unique and on the harder side but well organized.

Entretien
Recruiter phone interview, a technical screen, then multiple technical interview rounds. I've gone through non-concurrent programming, concurrent programming, algorithms and the design one; didn't make it to the behaviorial and final interviews,
The process is well explained, and I have even got feedback afterwards.
