Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Slack en janv. 2015
Entretien
15 minute chat with HR. A week long coding test (which took at least a full weekend to complete) which I apparently did well in. I was told that the team I had originally applied for did not actually have space for any interns so I had a 30 minute phone chat with a director from a different team.
I think the level of investment from the company is hugely disproportionate compared to the investment that they ask candidates to make. The people I talked to over the phone seemed like they'd rather be anywhere else and were surprisingly unwilling to take/answer questions. This was an extremely disappointing experience because I feel like I was not given fair consideration for the role.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Slack (San Francisco, CA) en oct. 2017
Entretien
1. Phone screen with university recruiter
2. Coding challenge on Codility
3. Technical discussion (phone) with engineer
Thought I did really well on the coding challenge, but got a boilerplate rejection on the next business day . Not sure why, they said no feedback. Frustrating because as college students we're here to learn about our weaknesses and improve upon them -- the interview process did exactly the opposite by not telling you anything.

Moderately difficult (unique) coding problems, solved using hashmaps and 2-D arrays.

The interview process was smooth and fast. Everyone I spoke with was friendly and the questions asked were relevant to the role. The process consisted of an HR phone screen, a timed coding challenge, and a video call with the hiring manager.

Contacted by a recruiter via email. There was a 30 minute phone chat with a recruiter that was not technical ((what's you're favorite thing about slack, tell me about yourself, etc)) After that you are emailed a link to a Codility challenge. The challenge was pretty easy so don't stress to much about it! One question asked you to convert seconds to hr:min:sec format. The others required more thought but yeah, they weren't outrageous. You have 2 hours to complete 3 questions. If you pass this, you go on to speak to a hiring manager. They will ask you more behavioral questions. It's described as a technical discussion. "What don't you like about slack?"
I did not make it past this step but I've heard this is the last step. The process does not seem too hard and I will definitely be trying again in the future.
