Entrevista
Submitted a CV online along with responses to a couple of questions - "why Pointy?" and "what is your salary expectation?". Received an email the next day inviting me to an online interview in 3 days time. Pointy returned with feedback within a day.
I was impressed by the speed at which I was processed. I was disappointed that "whiteboard" algorithm questions were asked; it's such an ineffective way of interviewing for an engineering role.
