Me postulé a través de una facultad o universidad. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Chewy (Boston, MA) en oct 2018
Entrevista
Talked to them at a job fair at my school first. They were aware that I knew one of the higher-ups there. I had one online HackerRank quiz which needed a lot of Java knowledge, but no coding directly. Lastly I went in to interview at their office in Boston for about two to three hours of interviewing. I talked to two engineers (neither technical, just experience/resume discussions), and had one Java code reading/refactoring exercise. I thought the whole thing went quite well and I liked the people there.
After that, I was in contact with the recruiters often, and knew others who had interviewed as well. The recruiters strung me and others along for about a month. They kept telling us they would get back to us the next week, then the next, then the next. Finally, around Thanksgiving they emailed me (and I assume the others) telling us that it was the busy season and so they had to have all engineers on deck to handle this. They said they were pausing recruitment until the new year. At this point the whole situation was quite ridiculous and I decided to take myself out of consideration as I had other offers, even though I was fairly confident that I would get an offer eventually. They were a mess throughout the process and my overall impression is not good.

Applied online and received a call about 3 weeks later. We first had a screening phone interview where they asked things like "Why chewy".
About a week later there was a technical round scheduled with an engineer on the team. During this round I was presented with an easy hacker rank question and was able to move forward.
The final round was a set of 4 interviews, 3 of which were technical and 1 behavioral. The technical interviews involved debugging existing applications and talking through the design of a basic CRUD application. Each of these interviews was 1 hour long and they spanned over 2 days.
Overall, everyone was pretty respectful and friendly throughout the whole process.

A phone call with behavioral questions about current work experience. Then a 10 minute multiple choice test with 20 questions about Java. Questions were on very specific parts of Java that I have not used before like Vector classes and different implementations of Vector classes.
On the initial call, the screener told me that the coding interview would be a series of coding questions on a certain skills-testing website, so that is what I prepared for. It wasn’t that at all— the interviewer plonked me down in an empty online environment that I wasn’t familiar with and basically said “build a web app, go” with very little guidance. I wasted too much time trying to figure out how to import different packages into the environment while the interviewer was very unclear on if that’s what he expected me to do or not. Then he said “time’s up” and was not interested in hearing any more about my thought process.
