I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Legado (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Oct 2024
Interview
Fantastic and clear interview process!
1. HR Call: I heard from the recruiter the same day I applied on LinkedIn - quick chat (including about salary) and sent me details for an online coding challenge and more details in an email.
2. Online test - multiple choice based on C# and JavaScript, found this quite difficult. But it's timed to 30mins so big time commitments.
3. Technical Interview: I didn't do amazing in the above test, but they were still happy to proceed me to the technical interview, with head of engineering and a senior engineer. Half discussion of experience, half technical questions (e.g. about managed / unmanaged code)
4. Behavioural Interview: chatting with consultants / PMs at the company. Great discussion, mainly behavioural and managing stress etc.
5. CEO Chat: a relaxed conversation with the CEO to know each other better. Very friendly and a positive discussion!
All interviews were in person. Moved very quickly, this process took ~2 week IIRC with very clear steps and communication throughout.
