J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Unity (Édimbourg, Écosse)
Entretien
I initially interviewed with Unity in May for a different position, however, after going through the various stages I got rejected due to a lack of experience in the team's tech stack. The recruiter advised me that a more junior position will be opening soon after, for which I applied a week after I got my feedback.
The process this time around was slightly accelerated, as I had already done the coding challenges. Everything went relatively quickly (considering the current situation) and it took less than 4 weeks to get an offer after my initial interview for the position. The whole process was very well organised by the recruiting team and everyone was kept up to date (including me). The workload was seamlessly shifted between recruiters whenever they went on leave and everyone seemed to be up to date with my application. All conversations were very relaxed, but the attitude was still very professional.
Overall a very enjoyable process, during which I felt like I was evaluated well and treated with a lot of respect. The fact that everything was done remotely did not seem to be a detriment at all.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
All of the technical interviews were digging deep and I received a fair grilling. With that in mind, there were no unreasonable questions, so it was all justified. Thankfully, a heavy focus on SWE-type questions, rather than algorithmic or language-specific. The usual stuff of "How would you design X system?", or "How can you improve this code?". A lot of describing old projects as well.
Initial screening call followed by technical test. Given a website (codility I think?) To visit, take sample tests then take the test.
The website examples were all 20 minutes for short questions and longer for longer questions.
The actual test given was three questions in ten minutes. They were probably on the easy level but they were not obviously easier than the 20 minute questions I had been practicing on the site.
3 minutes per question was just not enough to work with.
Was called back a few days later by HR and told I was unsuccessful and she read a list of errors off to me quickly which I couldn't really take in as I took the call on the fly during my work day and wasn't at home. Written report or feedback would have been much more useful.

Question 1
Standard interview questions from HR and then a code test. Don't remember the question.
phone call, 30-minute informal phone call that lets us find out a bit more about you, tell you more about Unity and about the opportunity, and answer any initial questions you may have

Initial screening call followed by a codility test - the codility test comprised three short questions in 10 minutes. Did not pass the code test - found it to be very hard due to time constraint and did not match the sample tests I had taken first which allowed 20 minutes for a question. I had 3 minutes per question, so didn't feel it a fair or reasonable test of abilities for a junior role.
