Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Dayshape em mai. de 2026
Entrevista
Applied online. Heard back roughly a month later with a 10-minute admin call to confirm availability and outline the process. Three stages in total:
1. 30-minute screening call with the hiring manager via Teams — background, experience, and motivations.
2. Short online technical aptitude test via Adaface — multiple choice JavaScript questions, roughly 15-20 minutes. Focused on code tracing rather than algorithm solving.
3. 60-minute final interview via Teams with the Development Manager and a Tech Lead. Split between a technical exercise (predicting output of a JavaScript sorting function, reasoning out loud) and a values/competency conversation.
Outcome communicated within a week of the final interview. Process was well organised throughout with clear communication at each stage.

Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Dayshape (Edimburgo, Escócia).
Entrevista
Went through recruiter screen. Told I was going to have a 30 minute phone screen to go over resume and fit with the hiring manager. Lo and behold, it ended up being a video interview and was asked mostly behavioral questions with no resume walkover whatsoever. Half of the interview was a bizarre roleplay where you had to pretend you're helping a client design a swimming pool in the Scottish Highlands.

Entrevista
- 30 minute Technical interview - Scenario based
- 20 minute MCQ Coding test - Reasonably easy, and the AI guides you.
- 1.5 hour Technical and Values interview - Pair programing and common behavioural questions
Reasonably smooth interview process. Great people to talk to, engineers were clearly experienced and knew what they were looking for.
Downside was that it was often a week between stages without communication.
Was offered a solid remote-first position with full visa fee coverage which is rare & generous. Salary was on the low end of market rate.
Ended up accepting another offer.
