I applied online. I interviewed at Rokt (New York, NY) in Oct 2021
Interview
Bizarre.
I've been contacted two times now from a recruiter at Rokt. Each time they email me and say that I should be on the lookout for an aptitude test. The test never shows up. I email them and say that I didn't receive it. They don't reply. The positions all seem interesting and I'd like to pursue them but this is also getting old.

Question 1
Never got the interview, they never sent the email.

Other Software Engineer interview reviews for Rokt
Standard IQ testing + 2min video about project I'd completed, then zoom code interview, then system architecture interview, then finally a fit interview. Early interview section was fairly easy, System design was a pretty reasonable 2 stage login/verification app, fit interview was quite engaging and in depth.

Question 1
System design was a pretty reasonable 2 stage login/verification app - was asked first to design a scraper to import logins from a text doc on s3 to a db. then infrastructure on how to get logins within 100ms from front to back.
Was in invited to a virtual coding interview as the first round, was equivalent to an easy leetcode problem. Did not finish question within the interview because I got tripped up, but the interviewer said he saw that I had the solution. Got a rejection email a week later.
Questions similar to IQ tests for an initial round. Coding interview was online with live interaction from the interviewer to talk through the thought process. System design interview was quite involved. It really focused on the thought process and design reasoning rather than knowledge, with the interviewer accommodating any knowledge gaps I had. Behavioral interview was fairly standard.
Overall it felt they made an effort to make the interviews fit the candidates' experience and expertise, which I appreciate.
