Question 1
Understandings about the data and how you will handle the data model part.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at 5X in Jun 2025
Interview
It was not an interview/test. They just wanted feedback about their product, which was very bad. First, there was an easy technical round. Then they gave me access to their platform where I had to use their product for one day, perform their tasks, and provide feedback the very next day. I did all of that successfully, and the demo went very well. I was able to present everything in proper format. However, their product crashed during the live demo. Then came the worst part: ghosting. They just told me to wait. I've been waiting for almost a month now. The recruiter isn't picking up my calls or replying to my messages. No communication whatsoever. IT BECAME CLEAR THAT THE COMPANY JUST WANTED FREE PRODUCT REVIEWS DISGUISED AS AN INTERVIEW.

Question 1
5x just wants free product reviews disguised as an interview.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at 5X in Aug 2024
Interview
Interview process took around/over a month. With multiple calls with almost entire Product leadership team members and both founders. There were multiple reschedules and data changes by the 5x team, and towards the end the response was the role was being put on hold.
Overall, not a pleasant experience, such clarities about role existence could have been issued earlier in the process, so the individual could invest time and energy accordingly.
