      Software Engineer Interview

      Oct 2, 2023
      Anonymous employee
      Nairobi
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zepz (Nairobi) in Sep 2023

      Interview

      I recently had the pleasure of going through a remarkably pleasant and informal interview process, and I can't help but express my gratitude and admiration for the exceptional guidance and communication skills displayed by Dylan Mystrello, who was instrumental in making this experience truly remarkable. From the very beginning, this interview was unlike any I had previously encountered. Instead of the usual formalities and rigid question-and-answer sessions, it felt like a genuine and engaging conversation. The interview panel seemed genuinely interested in understanding my previous experiences, skills, and aspirations. This approach immediately put me at ease, allowing me to open up and share more about myself than I had anticipated. Dylan Mystrello, in particular, played a pivotal role in creating this comfortable atmosphere. His warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for me to discuss my past experiences and achievements without feeling pressured or nervous. He encouraged me to share stories, anecdotes, and real-life examples that truly showcased my abilities. It felt like I was chatting with a friend, and that made all the difference. But what truly stood out was Dylan's exceptional communication skills. He was prompt in responding to my queries, providing clear and concise information about the interview process, and offering valuable insights into what the company was looking for in a candidate. His guidance throughout the interview process was invaluable, and I felt well-prepared and informed every step of the way. I must also commend Dylan for his transparency and honesty. He provided feedback and updates in a candid manner, which I greatly appreciated. It reinforced my confidence in the company's commitment to transparency and fair evaluation. In conclusion, this informal chat interview was a breath of fresh air in the often stressful and rigid world of job interviews. It allowed me to present myself authentically and comfortably. I genuinely believe that this interview approach aligns with the company's values of fostering open and honest communication. I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Dylan Mystrello for his outstanding support and guidance throughout this process. His professionalism and exceptional communication skills made a significant difference in my experience, and I am genuinely excited about the possibility of joining this company. If the rest of the team embodies the same qualities I witnessed in Dylan, I have no doubt that this would be a fantastic place to work. Thank you once again, Dylan, for making this interview experience unforgettable.

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zepz

      Interview

      The process was quite straightforward: - Initial call with the recruiter - A 2-step tech interview. This comprised of a 2-hour take-home exercise. If successful after review you proceed to part 2 - pair programming. - A chat with the hiring manager. Of all companies I've interviewed I'd say they have the fastest response time which made it a very pleasant process.
