I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Whatnot (Dublin, Dublin) in May 2023
Interview
Interview with Recruiter, 2 coding challenges, Behavioural interview followed. good process, however technical side was quite difficult with the questions asked. I believe there was a lack of communication between the recruiter and employee who assigned the tech questions, as questions I was implicitly told wouldn't appear, were asked.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Coding Interview was quite difficult, problem got given through speech, and had to build a tree-based system to count number of hits each user made on specific sites on a page.
Very kind, efficient. Everyone was very communicative ands the whole process went smoothly. Very open to schedule as needed for the many rounds to go through. Would recommend trying to apply.

Question 1
How would you onboard new customers on our app? think like a PM
The interview process at Whatnot started with a recruiter phone screen to discuss my background and interest in the platform. After that, I had a technical screen focused on algorithmic problem-solving and data structures.
