The interview process was quick! The external recruiter kept me well informed at every given stage and provided questions well in advance to aid preparation. The recruiter did also provide feedback after.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Century-Tech (London, England) in Jul 2024
Interview
4 Stage interview:
1. 30 minutes Screening chat with VP of Architecture (Sam)
2. 45 minutes Hands-on Coding (2 senior engineers)
3. 45 minutes System Design (2 senior engineers)
4. 30 minutes Culture Fit (2 non-engineering team members)
Everyone I met at Century were absolutely lovely and they are doing some good and interesting engineering on a good product.
Leadership seems good, and technical direction seemed really good (scaling up the current product which has good market fit).
I was very pleased to receive an offer, but was offered a much better package elsewhere, so ended up declining.
