I went through two stages - the initial screening interview, and a take home technical test. There’s an additional stage after a successful take home, but I didn’t progress that far.
The process was well run, everyone I spoke to was very informative and friendly, and Sketch were clear about time lines.
I received specific technical feedback on the take-home test within days of submission.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some basic troubleshooting questions as part of the screening interview
Few emails exchanged, no interview. Company does not respect candidates' time. 4 stages for recruitment process, not paid, coding challenge. Mediocre salary range for offered duties. Recruiter with negative attitude.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sketch in Dec 2020
Interview
Had an initial call with internal recruiter. Really nice conversation asked a few questions based around my reasons for leaving current employment along with some cultural and very basic technical questions.
Received a coding challenge, which was not too painful. I sent back challenge over the Christmas period, so was not expecting an immediate response.
After a couple of chase up emails, I finally got a response stating that I had not gotten through to next round. I asked for feedback and got nothing...
Not great in my opinion, considering there was the suggestion I could ask for feedback and when I posed the question I got nothing.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize that it took us longer than expected to get back to you. We always offer feedback, it’s our way of saying thanks for the time and effort you put into applying. Our HR team will work hard to deliver what we promise.
