I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GitHub in Jun 2018
Interview
Applied online, a recruiter contacted me a few days after by email to schedule a phone interview.
During the phone interview she asked me about my previous experience and what I was currently working on. Then went ahead and told me more about GitHub and gave me some time to ask some questions. At the end of the phone conversation she gave me a take home assignment in Ruby on Rails.
A few days after I submitted the completed assignment she came back stating that at this moment they had decided to not continue with my application.
If you don't have experience with Ruby or Ruby on Rails, don't even apply, they expect you to know it well.
There were a total of four interview rounds: a recruiter screening, a hiring manager interview, and a loop consisting of system design and coding rounds. The interviews went very well, and after each round, the interviewers seemed highly impressed and mentioned that I would hear back from the recruiter soon. However, I was ultimately rejected because the decision came down to a very close comparison between me and another candidate. Additionally, the recruiter was not very helpful throughout the process, which made the experience more frustrating.
Gave OA after passing the interview screening. Recruiter will reach out it was only 1 problem in the OA on hackerrank to solve and recruiter will reach out immediately after that’s been solved
