I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Criteo (Paris) in Jul 2021
Interview
The interview was for a Full-stack software engineer.
The process goes as follows;
- A first call with someone from talent acquisition.
- A tech screen: a short live coding problem related with what you'll do, if you are more front-end you'll have to develop a simple front-end app using the framework you want (or vanilla js if you prefer). For back-end, I think you're given an algo (Leet code style - medium difficulty).
- If you pass the techscreen, you'll get two more thechnical interviews: full-stack coding interview: you are asked to interact with an API and do some processing to show the data on the web; and system design interview: standard one.
- Finally you'll have a behavioural interview with your (hopefully) manager at Criteo.
