I applied online. I interviewed at Lusha Systems (Tel Aviv) in Mar 2026
Interview
Phone call was a total of 4 minutes and 38 seconds. Completely in hebrew, although the poistion is in English, couldn't understand her and didn't seem like she really wanted to listen.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work at Lusha, and do you still work for your previous employer.
The process includes two technical interviews. The first interview focused on presenting the company and the role, presenting myself and my background, and finally a python implementation question.
The second interview was with the director of the group and included a very detailed architecture question. In my opinion, they focus a bit too much on the specific frameworks they are using.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
First interview - Implementing the unsubscribe function given a group of users who share contact details.
Second interview - White board session, building an architecture to details. given many tokens to an API given by users, build an architecture that queries the API with all the tokens, saving the data to a data lake. All in the highest scale possible, without breaking the API restrictions or losing data along the way.
Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏 We’re glad the process felt clear and relevant.
We hear you on the focus on specific frameworks. That’s valid, and we’ll take it back to the team so the conversation stays centered on how candidates think at scale, not on particular tools.
Thanks again for the transparency. Wishing you the best in what’s next.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Lusha Systems (Tel Aviv) in Apr 2025
Interview
- HR screening & senior member interview went great. They were pleasant & professional.
- Office assignment:
A. They bring you to the office only so you won't use AI to answer customers' email questions. ("open book", you have their help center and other resources open on other tabs).
B. It's on a Mac (which Im not familiar with), it took all my mental energy to manage keyboard and mouse behaviour on the expense of fully explaining my thought process to replies I'm asked to write for those emails (I passed anyway).
C. It's not technically difficult if you can structure replies, show empathy, and you know how to deal with API HTTP status codes like 500, 403, etc.
- Hiring manager interview: professional. Didn't pass, HR called two days later saying they moved forward with other candidates since I didn't have enough "global experience", which they knew before we began the process, making this while thing feel like it's a dumb miss-alignment on something else, but idk.
Great people regardless, had very pleasant conversations with the team throughout the process.
Thanks for the detailed feedback 🙏 Glad to hear the interviews felt professional.
You’re right, the office setup shouldn’t get in the way of showing your thinking, and we accept that feedback for future processes. As for the “global experience” callout, we hear you. That should’ve been clearer earlier in the process.
Appreciate your time and honesty, and wishing you the best in what’s next.
