I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Grafana Labs (San Francisco, CA) in Sept 2022
Interview
- Initial interview with recruiter
- Coding exercise (take home React app, make improvements)
- Presentation deep-dive about a previous project to other engineers
- Final interview with hiring manager
I interviewed for a position that got filled before I could complete the process. Rather than reject me, the recruiters went out of their way to find another team that would be a good fit. I continued the final step of the process with the new hiring manager and received an offer. Very kind recruitment team and very transparent. Only issue was the fact that I am on US time and the recruiters were in Europe, so there was a bit of email-tag.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Fix this React app, tell us about a project you were proud of, etc. No gotcha questions, very practical.
The process lasted 2 months and there were 5 interviews in total.
They were always very kind to me. Several interviews were personal and others were more technical, in addition to a code test.
