Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Medallia (Buenos Aires).
Entrevista
I've been reached via Linkedin by a recruiter for the Buenos Aires office.
They were 7 interviews total, the first one was a technical interview via skype. Then came 2 technical interviews on site, a technical interview via skype with someone from the palo alto office, a cultural interview (life experiences, likes and some questions about work), a last technical interview on site and finally an interview with a manager.
It's a very long process, but I get the point. It's difficult to hire developers and specially making sure that they are the right fit, both technical and cultural (basically if you are going to get along with the people you work with).
They made me an offer and I accepted.
Overall a great experience.
PS: Since is such a long process I think it would be pretty cool if Medallia gave a t-shirt or something to those who didn't make it. It might sound dumb, but it's kind of frustrating investing all that time just to get rejected :).

Scheduling / Informing / Interview Automation all seems well Organized & well communicated via email. There are 3 round of interview first HR Round with 2 subsequent technical round. Technical Interview round covers Job Requirements relevant questions from basics to advanced. Practical Round covers code though process of critical problem
Candidatei-me de outra forma. O processo levou mais de 1 semana. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Medallia (New York, NY).
Entrevista
1. Initial call with recruiter. Filling up some forms before interview is scheduled.
2. 1 hr technical zoom interview with codepad share. After initial introduction you're given a real time code task. You're given a sample of incomplete code based on real case.
3. One part of the task is to implement a simple function and other task is to remove the bugs from existing code and propose modifications to code. Interviewer may guide you in what is expected. e.g edge cases, optimization etc.
Interview was more focused on Java. It was not standard leetcode interview. It would be helpful if recruiter could clarify on nature of interview. Though the interview task was really simple, the expectations from the candidate are not made clear. I didn't make past the 1st round even after implementing and running the code with correct results. So I may not be a good judge of what they're looking for in candidate.
Better clarify the expectations of the task from interviewer before you start coding. Make a list and check that list through the interview, this will improve your chances of getting second call.

Diferente a todo. Casos reales trabajandolos con tu entrevistador como si estuvieras trabajando en un proyecto real. Foco en el proceso y no en resultado. No les importaba que supiera o no métodos especificos del lenguage.
