J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Datadog en avr. 2022
Entretien
Around 5 steps interviews with a take home project to give back within a week. It took me more than a month to finish all the interviews.
The technical recruiter was very helpful, the person briefed me before each interviews (what was expected of me ...) which helped me to prepare for each of them.
All the interviewers were very nice and friendly. The frontend system design interview was really close to a real use case ("how would you design this specific feature using React?" ...)
Overall, it was a great experience!

Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Usual behavioral interview questions : tell me about a time you failed/mentored/delivered under pressure etc...
First I had a session with HR to understand if we were aligned. After that, there was a coding interview, with 2 interviwers and a leet-code like exercise. They send a very detailed email clarifying what we should know to succeed in the interview.
