I applied online. I interviewed at Rula in May 2025
Interview
Went through all rounds of interviews, which included a recruiter screening, hiring manager screening, and two coding interviews. The algorithms were not what I expected for this position, but in hindsight weren't too bad. I was offered feedback after my rejection, but the company did not follow through. This was truly disappointing considering their promised culture of feedback.
Talked to a recruiter for about 20 minutes about my background. Talked about the company for a little bit, and then asked me a few questions about my previous positions and a few "Tell me a time when..." questions. Tech stack lined up, but got a reject email a few days later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you messed up. Tell me how you fixed it.
I’m not sure what the whole process looks like. I ended up deciding that I needed the flexibility of post time/contract work, so I withdrew my name from consideration after recruiter screen. I think the next step would have been a hiring manager screen?

Question 1
Tell me about yourself and what you’ve done in your most recent role
