Entrevista
I had a very positive interview experience for the Senior Software Engineer (Backend, PHP) position at Automattic. The interviewer was an HR representative who was incredibly empathetic, energetic, and positive. Their approach immediately put me at ease, eliminating any stress I might have had about the interview.
The conversation felt more like a friendly discussion rather than a formal interview, making it a truly comfortable experience. It was great to receive a follow-up after the interview, as it showed their professionalism and commitment to keeping candidates informed.
Overall, it was one of the most pleasant interview experiences I’ve had.
Started with a quick phone call and followed with a code test.
The test was to resolve a couple issues in a github repository.
There was a slack channel available to ask any questions.

The interview process was impressively inclusive, devoid of video interviews, but it's notably lengthy at 2 months from initial contact to offer. The paid trial, at $25/hour, might not be suitable for everyone, particularly those currently employed. This trial is essentially an audition, providing valuable insights into the company's culture and work style, which I found enjoyable. Additionally, it allowed me to showcase my skills and contributions to the company. The process encompasses four stages:
1. Slack Interview
2. Code Test
3. Trial - Final chat with HR

Two in-person interviews. Invited to hiring slack. Given a take-home project that should take about 30-40 hours to complete, which was paid at a nominal rate. Better than not getting paid. The process was great, everyone is friendly and accessible.
