The process took more than a month and involved three rounds. The first round was with a manager, who asked several questions about my past experiences and presented scenarios to understand how I would handle them. Next, I had to complete an asynchronous assessment, for which they gave me a week. After submitting it, I had to defend my solution in front of two software engineers. The final round was a system design interview. In the end, I didn’t receive an offer. The process felt messy, with no feedback for two weeks between rounds. Throughout all the interviews, my impression was that everyone seemed unhappy and uninterested in conducting them.

I was contacted by a local HR company, and they introduced the role to me. Next we proceeded with a Coding Challenge on HackerRank. I had to solve 2 coding problems with medium difficulty in 2 hours. After that we had an intro talk with Midokura's HR. We discussed the role, expectations, and well the next steps which consisted in a interview day with multiple interviews. The interview day consisted from 4 separate interviews, each lasting one hour: - the 1st interview was a review of the coding challenge + 1 coding problem - the 2nd one was a System Design interview with two engineers - the 3rd one was a talk with two of their DevOps engineers, about CI/CD, networking, container orchestration, fault tolerance and similar concepts - the last one was a non-technical / interpersonal talk with the Director of Engineering They came back with a positive feedback in about a business day, and they decided to make an offer. I received an offer letter in about 2 weeks. In the meantime, I also requested an additional talk with a VP, to clarify some product vision and organizational aspects. Unfortunately, I was not quite convinced, so in the end I decided to decline their offer. Otherwise, from a financial point of view, the offer was relatively good.
