I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Recart (Hungary) (Budapest) in Feb 2025
Interview
- call with founder: about personal motivation and the company (mostly the latter)
- talk with CTO: about work experience, tech that Recart uses and tech challenges the company faces
- take-home: a React app where you need to implement a new feature and write tests. The provided code uses a flawed data model, Recart want you to proactively fix it, even though this isn't explicit from the take home task description
1. The initial round was a standard HR session.
2. Team fit round with Engineering Manager.
3. Homework task to create a backend service.
4. Half-day on-site round with the team. Some questions were asked regarding my solution for the homework task. Then technical topics were touched like nodejs and react. We also had a system design section in the interview.
5. 1on1 Facetime round with the CEO.
They also requested to provide reference persons from previous workplaces. They were really really friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed the procedure.
