I applied through other source. I interviewed at Reactor School
Interview
slow. not super structured. There's 4 parts I think: discovery call (basically getting to know), trial-by-ice (digital interview), trial-by-fire (skills assessment), and final/offer interview.
Overall, it was super easy. There weren't a lot to really think about. But the process is slow. Unclear timelines too. I know they're a startup but they don't even have the courtesy to keep candidates informed or updated.
Very clear, good chat with the CEO, was smooth process getting onboarded, must think on your feet, and think about your career plan. People who are driven will be good
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Reactor School in Aug 2023
Interview
It was unexpected. I was referred by my previous manager and it was set as a "Chat" and there was no explicit mention as an interview. Upon going in to the video call to have a chat, it was actually and interview. I was very unprepared and underdressed despite it being remote. After the first "chat", I then had another (explicitly mentioned) formal meeting with my reporting manager
