The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Alarm.com (Boston, MA) in Mar 2022
Interview
Went pretty smoothly and quickly. The initial online assessment was easy to medium difficulty. The next step was a phone call with the recruiter who was kind and easy to talk to. The final step was two 45-minute back-to-back interviews with the company's software engineers. These interviews consisted of behavioral questions and then an easy to medium difficulty technical assessment.
