J'ai postulé via une autre source. J'ai passé un entretien chez Skillz (San Francisco, CA) en mai 2019
Entretien
Getting the first call with them took a long time. A recruiter reached out initially but then didn't respond for a week or more. After an initial screen with a recruiter, and then taking the first take home, I tried to contact the recruiter, the email bounced meaning they had been 'disappeared'. I wasn't told till after the on-site 3 hr + interview hat they have a second 3 hour+ on-site, then a phone/video call with the CEO. This is reminiscent of a very early stage startup though they started in 2012. Being an active candidate is already hard enough, companies should keep the process concise and spread over few days/visits as possible, meaning do one on-site, not multiple.
I passed the take home tests, as well as first on-site successfully. It was going to move on to second on-site when they called me and told me another candidate had been chosen, the day before the second on-site.
TL;DR: Poor communication on the part of the company, broken testing process, didn't take responsibility, avoid.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
I ended up going through a broken testing process, twice, via hackerrank. The first time, the test instance did not come up, it sat there spinning for 7-10 min. When I hit the link to re-launch it, it deducted the 'broken instance' time from my test time of 60 minutes, which was a really junk experience.
Since that one was broken, they wanted me to do another take home, at which point I should have refused. I'm looking for a job yes, but no I dont wanna take your broken tests. Skillz didnt really take responsibility for the broken tests, instead blamed it on hackerrank. Hindsight knowledge, i would have cancelled the interview process right then and there.
On-Site: First interview was pretty fleshed out system design interview, whiteboarded. The rest were a combo of panels asking about projects and other personality grading.

The interview was a phone call followed by a coding test, 5 questions with an hour on clock. I had to retake the test second time due to the fact that on the first test, on one of the questions, my system was stuck and would not let me proceed to the next question. They were kind to let me take another set of questions. However, the second set of questions were extremely difficult with two aws questions, (one was a project). Two coding questions and another was a sql coding.
