Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fui entrevistado pela HubSpot (Boston, MA) em nov. de 2015
Entrevista
Was initially contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn after checking out my GitHub and past work. Had a pretty typical phone screening, "Why HubSpot?" etc. At the end of the call I was sent a link to a HackerRank coding test. The first question was pretty simple while the other one was fairly complex. Despite being off my game and not fully completing the second question, I was asked to come in for an onsite interview. The interview consisted of meeting my recruiter and asking any questions I had about the company while on a tour. The following two interviews felt more like a discussion than a test which made it extremely casual and actually fun. I got a typical algorithm question with new constraints added throughout the discussion, which I answered in JavaScript. I also got some general situational questions related to my experience. My background is in front-end development so my second interview was a little more hands on. It consisted of a mockup and some boilerplate code. The task was to add certain functionality and style all the bare HTML, I had access to any documentation I needed. I've had previous interviews where I was just asked a series of questions about JavaScript closures and prototypal inheritance so I thought this was an AMAZING format that was more realistic to actual work. Overall a really great format for an interview. The interview ended with my recruiter asking me how my overall experience was and if they could improve on anything and their dedication to continuously improving really shined through. Overall, I got the vibe that people were extremely happy to be there, they were passionate about what they were doing, and that self-improvement is a core value.
Behavioral screening with the recruiter, then a 2 round technical interview. 1 leetcode easy question and 1 design question. Small behavioral questions at the end of each technical portion. One final call with the recruiter ~1 day after the technical interview for feedback and final questions

Everything posted is correct for the backend Co-Op. This interview is easy to crack if you prepare using the already posted behavioral responses and practice star. Algorithm interview was a joke and the system design part felt like the expectations were not super high.

Design a weather system.
Array algorithmic question.
First recruiter did not respond at all to me in appropriate time. Eventually, another recruiter started answering my emails (I think the first one was affected by the layoffs) and then after a month and asking the recruiter for more details since I had other offers, I got sent a generic rejection email after a 30 min phone call I had with the first recruiter more than a month ago. Very terrible process and disorganized recruiters and I was very disappointed because I expected more from Hubspot. A rejection after a phone screening shouldn’t take a whole month.
