Lengthy phone and on-site interviews. SpotX wants to make sure you are going to like them as much as they like you. Be prepared to code, both on a computer for the pre-interview test and on a whiteboard. Have fun with it! It is a very non-threatening environment, and the interviewers want you to do well.

Be prepared for anything, and don't be afraid to admit what your weaknesses are... like a good engineer.
Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. O processo levou 2 meses. Fui entrevistado pela SpotX (Broomfield, CO) em abr. de 2020
Entrevista
Somewhat long with multiple fits and starts. Initially I was told it could be remote, then told it couldn't be. Then I was told it could be remote after all. Then I had a phone screen, then I was told they weren't sure if they were hiring any more (Coronavirus). Then there was a technical interview. I was interviewing "down" in title from my current position and was mostly interested in the high volume aspect of their software and using more modern compiler features.

Pergunta 1
Describe how various aspects of the C++ standard library work: containers and algorithms. This is a paraphrase of the questions. They all center around mistakes the engineering team has made in the past and learned from. E.g. When erasing items in a vector, why do you suffer a performance hit when doing a simple ::remove?

Talked with the recruiter for about 45-50 minutes, enough to make me want the job and continue. Took a coding test online. 3 questions, 200 minutes, all about array and string manipulation, general algorithm questions, purely academic.
