I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (London, England) in Aug 2023
Interview
- Intro call with recruiter - Code pairing interview with two engineers. Typical code leet type interview - Presumable a tech panel interview for the final stage (If I made it that far)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The coding question that was given was one of the trickier that I've been given (and I've done quite a few of these code pairing interviews so far an usual perform fairly well). I won't say what the exact question but make sure you understand what the concept of a median very well and the question didn't have any relation a real world scenario which is always fairly disappointing. The interviewer was friendly enough and it wasn't an unpleasant interview
Applied online. Received online assessment link. Gave their hackerrank test which had 2 coding questions. All test cases passes. Immediately received automated mail that recruiter will contact you. After few hours got email that they have decided to move forward with other candidates.
That is my application was not even reviewed by the recruiter(which usually takes 1-2 mins) before sending the test link.
Did an oa passed all the questions and had a video recording interview with some Java problem and also 5 behavioral with 3 chances and received a rejection two weeks after it is submitted
Graduate role had a few stages. First two stages included online technical and behavioural assessments. Final stage was a live coding interview with two software engineers and it was a standard coding problem with average difficulty.
