This was a 7 step process for an entry-level Software Engineering job. I had two interviews with the CEO herself, two interviews where I had to record my answers on camera, a technical with one of the engineers, and some additional stuff. During the technical interview, I was given 30 minutes to solve two problems. Both were some extremely specific 3D modeling tasks, which were not similar to any Leetcode style interview. It was extremely specific to what the company is doing, instead of actually being related to Software Engineering. The answer did not rely on any algorithms or programming concepts, but was essentially~20 mathematical equations you were supposed to hardcode, which made no sense. A similar problem I found on Leetcode was a Leetcode Hard with the tag Math. The problem I was given during the interview was even more difficult than this Leetcode Hard, and I was supposed to solve it in 15 minutes. During the whole interview process, every member of the team was asking me multiple times whether I am okay with 12-14 hour workdays, as well as working on weekends. Overall, this made no sense being an entry-level job interview. If you need a founding engineer to carry your team, pay them well-deserved money, and don’t waste actual entry-level applicants’ time with such a lengthy and unpleasant interview process.
