Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Freetrade em mai. de 2026
Entrevista
The quality of the people involved were exceptional at every level, they were very friendly, patient, and reassuring throughout the process, and gave genuinely useful feedback at every level of the process. Freetrade are the only company out of around 15 interviews to offer and even reply with a feedback interview, which was genuinely helpful and left a very strong impression on me. The talent partner offered to connect and help if I have any questions during my job hunt.
I had a screening call, a hiring manager interview with a basic LC easy challenge (potentially easier), and a live coding pair programming interview. I think there are more stages but I didn't get past live coding.
Only negatives I have are that there was some rushing during the live coding where I received maybe too much help, which showed that I lacked confidence in Flows, coroutines, and testing. However I have taken forwards that preparing for an interview to have the info I already knew fresh in my mind will make me succeed next time.

Entrevista
The interview consisted of 5 steps: intro call with HR, another intro call with the hiring manager (engineering manager), live coding, system design, and culture fit interview at the office. I was informed very thoroughly of every upcoming stage prior to the interview so that I could prepare ahead accordingly. There was no friction throughout the whole process; all steps went exactly as they were described to me beforehand.
Everyone I've met have been super polite, friendly, supportive and kind. During the interviews, the interviewers are very supportive; they let the interviewee ask questions and think aloud and brainstorm together, rather than coldly judging the interviewee and creating a tense environment.
The reason I declined the offer was that I got a competing offer but I would highly recommend Freetrade as the company, the culture, the people and the work seem top notch.
