I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Affirm in Dec 2024
Interview
The process was pretty straightforward. There was an initial 15 minute recruiter call, followed by a 1 hour technical screening, a 1 hour manager screening, and then a final round interview. The final round consisted of a 1 hour technical interview, and a 1 hour manager interview.
The interviewers, recruiters, and coordinators were all very friendly, pleasant to speak to, and the process was pretty quick. I managed to get replies within 1 - 2 days between interview stages. Definitely a positive experience.
