Me postulé a través de otra fuente. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Affirm (San Francisco, CA) en jul 2022
Entrevista
Had a chat with the recruiter first. During the chat, the recruiter asked all the general questions, like "what is your interested", "why Affirm", "why do you want to leave your company", etc.

The phone screen tech question was a coding problem based on reservoir sampling. Not a difficult one. I was rejected two days later. I guess it was because I didn't complete the code. But if I was given 1 more minute, I could finish it. The interviewer asked me to tell him the idea, and then let me ask him any question instead of letting me finish the code.
Took roughly 2 months total. Recruiter was very fast to respond and the interviewers were all very nice and collaborative during the interview. Typical HR call, two technical rounds, and behavorial round.
Live coding #1 focuses on algorithms and data structures, testing problem-solving skills and efficiency. Live coding #2 emphasizes coding challenges and practical problem-solving. The behavioral round assesses experience, teamwork, and culture fit.
