There was a phone interview for the first round followed by a technical phone interview for the second round. They give you information on the best way to study for the technical interview. Everyone was very nice and welcoming.

I usually don’t write reviews after phone screens, but the process here was horrible. I have never been restricted to a coding language during the interview process at any company. However, Gusto made me choose between Ruby, Python, or JavaScript. None of which I am proficient in. Question was super easy however couldn’t get more than the first test to pass because I couldn’t get my syntax correct. I’m definitely not a bad programmer, I’ve interviewed at Unicorns and big tech companies, and received offers from some. Taking into account my performance at other company interviews, Gusto is not using the correct evaluation method for their software engineer candidates. They are looking for language proficiency NOT cs fundamentals proficiency. Would not recommend wasting time doing an interview (even for practice) unless you are proficient in one of the three languages stated above
