I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Roblox in Aug 2021
Interview
Terrible experience applying due to recruiter
Applied online via LinkedIn, and spoke with the recruiter, who said they would schedule an interview after sending my availability. Waited two whole weeks before following up, at which point they finally scheduled the technical screen.
Took the technical screen and passed (interviewer told me good luck on next interviews).
Waited two more weeks for news from recruiter, then sent an email. Three more days and still nothing so I send another email. Only then do they respond saying I passed the technical screen, and that they would reach out in 2 days.
It has now been another two weeks, and I have followed up multiple times with no response.
Don't waste your time applying!
Took an OA. Pretty difficult leetcode style questions and some games (Roblox games and psychology based games to determine personality traits). I did not get through the initial online assessment.
One standard hr phone call then one 60 min phone screen. Nothing out of the ordinary. Phone screen was done on codesignal where you could see code compile and run
Interview consisted of two leetcode style questions and two "games" that tested problem solving and optimization. Coding questions were of medium/hard difficulty. The games were difficult as the instructions given were terrible and unintuitive.
