Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Nebius (Amsterdã) em fev. de 2025
Entrevista
Long process with 2-3 week gaps in between the interviews. It took about 8-9 weeks in total to go through 3 coding sessions.
Coding tasks are easy to light medium (1 case) leetcode level.
The biggest challenge was that 2 out of 3 interviewers were not fully competent in tech areas they were discussing. And they would not accept any reasoning and act in a "boss culture" mode instead, going as far as putting pure lies in their interview notes.
Default way of communication from HR was to just keep silence. After some extensive pushing I've got a GPT generated response. And after another round of pushing I was able to get a short summary of interview notes.
Company is apparently aiming for faang style tech interviews, but fails miserably on implementation. Interviewers are going for cargo cult ego boost sessions with almost nothing in the process being related to a real technical expertise. The outcome of such a process is purely random of course.
Enormous waste of time.
I had the first technical interview after the HR screen call. Had a medium leetcode question. I could not solve the question completely but proceeded to next step. I did not go further than this step.
Hectic back and forth rescheduling. We
are best of the best and similar vibe, boring.. hm did not lose a single opportunity to mention how good they are and how mediocre others. they feeding from yandex resource pool so expect a “community” over there.
Initial HR screening call, followed by a technical interview
Technical Interviewer was not particularly interested after a few minutes, never heard back about whether or not things would move ahead
