I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HARVEY (San Francisco, CA) in May 2026
Interview
The process was quick. I was asked to do one coding round virtually. Everyone working there seems smart and knowledgeable. Interviewers were friendly. They have a lot of interesting problems to tackle.
A recruiter screen followed by a technical screen where it is an open ended live project without any AI allowed. Coding speed is a massive priority and doing it correctly is. There are multiple parts, and tripping up a single time can ruin the interview.
Phone screen - positive experience where they spin a LC problem as a little more practical real life example. Interviewer was very straightforward and did not waste much time. Started with background intro and went straight into problem.
