I truly cannot say enough good things about the interview process at Close. From the get-go, the process was exceptionally clear, and the people were beyond thoughtful. My interview process unfolded over the course of approximately a week. I had an initial 15-minute screening call with someone in the People Ops department, which led to a 45-minute technical interview with a member of the Backend engineering team. I then completed a take home assignment, after which my interview process came to an end. The feedback I received was thoughtful, and though I'm heartbroken, I know exactly why I didn't advance to the next step. This is the double-edged sword that comes with interviewing at an awesome company: You get a glimpse of what you future could look like, but some times that glimpse doesn't materialize. Nevertheless, I'm still so happy I got to interview with Close! They set the standard high for other companies; they really did.
