I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Reply (London, England) in Jan 2016
Interview
Initially began with submitting a CV and covering letter.
Once reviewed I had a brief phone interview with a woman from HR who was very nice, making it more of a conversation than a strict interview. This was partly quizzing me on my CV, experience, motivation, what i knew about the company but I think was mainly to gauge the quality of my communication skills. Following this I was invited to a face to face interview in London. The interviewer firstly gave me some forms to fill in and left the room for 10 mins. The form asked for information about projects you have worked on and what technologies I used.
After this there were a number of generic interview questions and further quizzing about things on my CV. Lastly, I was then asked to get up and teach the HR lady something technical of my choosing.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Reply nel mese di giugno 2026, Collouio tecnico per full stack developer, la posizione era per un full stac developer su react e python, con focus su AI e integrazione modelli llm
The interviewers were professional and the discussions were generally pleasant. The process was straightforward, although communication between stages could have been more consistent and timelines were sometimes unclear. Overall, a decent experience, but greater transparency around next steps would improve the candidate experience.

Question 1
"Walk us through a recent project and explain the technologies, trade-offs, and challenges involved."
I had two interviews, a technical live coding challenge with average logic questions that did indeed go well, and a technical task to be built in a week. The latter was a type project I didn't have many experience of, and technically didn't need experience of to access the job as it was an entry level (graduate) position.
