I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Red Hat in Jan 2023
Interview
Submitted my application, heard back from a recruiter in about two weeks. Filled out a questionnaire about my comfort with several different technologies. Heard back in a week to schedule an interview. The first interview was a 1-on-1 with the team manager, which went well. The second interview was with two engineers.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What was one time in your past work that you had to work against a tight deadline?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Red Hat in Jan 2026
Interview
Home exam was sent, 3 questions (leetcode style - easy-medium level]
followed by a phone call by the recurting team (more background]
on site interview - technical plus HR (more if you fit in the team and what are you looking for etc]
My Red Hat interview was an enriching experience, combining technical discussions, problem-solving scenarios, and collaborative conversations. The team was welcoming, and the process strengthened my confidence in open-source development and enterprise-grade engineering practices.
Very friendly & straight forward interview. Would recommend highly. Very respectful . Non technical interview & was very encouraging. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an interview in their third year in college
