J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez SoundHound en août 2019
Entretien
I was contacted within several days of my initial application. The process began with a HR phone screen where I discussed some of my past work experiences and my reasons for wanting to join SoundHound. This was followed by a second, more technical, phone screen, which involved diving a bit more deeply into my work experience and also solving a straightforward coding problem over coderpad.io.
After the phone screens, I was invited on-site for a full round of interviews. This consisted of meeting several people over the course of 5 hours. Everyone I met with was very friendly, and the interviews themselves felt like a two-way discussion. There were also several coding problems that I needed to solve, again using coderpad.io.
Overall, I had a good experience interviewing at SoundHound. I appreciated the fact that the interview process was very thorough and sought to ensure that I would be a good fit for the team that I would be joining.

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez SoundHound en avr. 2025
Entretien
had total of 3 rounds of discussion
1st round : screening (with principal engineer + manager)
2nd round : technical discussion (gave some programs to debug, gave some problem statement to write code, asked output of code etc)
3rd round : similar to second round. it was taken by some person from EU/US. pretty basic stuff on coding, dwelling on current project.
To be honest it seemed like child's play & I wondered if they are really interviewing for senior role.
At the end I get rejection mail.
I asked for reason -> no response from HR
Maybe its kind of a shadow(fake) company.

Entretien
It was a pleasant interview experience. The whole process took roughly 3 weeks. My recruiters (Estelle and Anna-Kaye) were super friendly and helpful throughout the process.
First was a phone interview with the recruiter, we chatted about my background and motivation. The next round was a 1-hour coding interview with an engineer.
The on-site consisted of 3 rounds of coding and 1 round of system design. The questions were are all pretty practical and close to what you would do in the job. All the interviewers were nice and friendly.
In the end, I decided to go with another opportunity, but I'd highly recommend this company based on my interview experience.
