Interview process was not the best experience for me. I initially met with one of the co founders who seemed really nice and down to earth. He was very friendly and made me want to work at this company. The first round is really just a conversation with him about your experience and what they're looking for.
Next he asked me to complete a take home project, which consisted of developing a web scraper with some API endpoints they want you to make available. Its really meant to go into event driven architecture/message queues and some web scraping as well. I really worked hard on this project and really unsure what I did wrong or what I did to deserve being ghosted but basically after submitting my project I never heard back.
It's one thing if you ghost someone after the first 30 minute phone conversation, but to ask someone to spend some time to build something for you and then just not respect (especially when that person did have everything that was asked + the bonus ones too) them at all by just never getting back to them just leaves a really bad taste in your mouth.
Not sure what happened (again, I thoroughly checked the list and made sure I did everything including the bonus ones, so its really a wtf) but really just a terrible candidate experience. Just leaves the person trying to guess what they could have done wrong instead of just hearing it from you.

The initial phone conversation is really just that, very conversational. Theres a take home piece to this that dives into your technical ability.
Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). O processo levou 8 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Vizion API em nov. de 2022
Entrevista
1) Chat with recruiter.
2) Code challenge.
3) Meet with engineering staff.
4) Meet with the product team.
5) Meet the founders.
This was the most exhausting interview process that I've ever been a part of. The process started mid November 2022 and ended mid January 2023. it took about eight weeks to get denied an offer.
The code challenge was a mini version of the businesses actual API offering. Meeting with the engineers entailed discussion about the work done in the code challenge. During every meeting at every step, a behavioral interview was happening.
I suggest you don't waste your time.

Typical behavioral interview questions about challenges you've overcome and projects you finished. There was nothing special about it other than the amount of time they expect you to sit on video calls answering the same questions over and again to different parties.
The code challenge was; build an API that would scrape a webpage and store the scraped data as a record in a database. They encouraged you to add bells and whistles, like a message queue.
