Me postulé en línea. Acudí a una entrevista en Riot Games (Santa Monica, CA) en sep 2017
Entrevista
Applied online and was contacted almost immediately on the same day for a recruiter phone interview. The interview process is very organized and there are one recruiter, one technical, and one cultural interview before the final onsite interview. They focus a lot on gaming and cultural fit so you must be a true gamer to be considered. Standard technical interview questions, nothing weird or out of the box. Main focus again is cultural fit. Onsite is consisted of a panel of 9 people and lots of duo interviews. Their campus is really nice, feel free to eat at lunch interview but it's still a cultural interview so expect a lot of trick questions during lunch. Some object oriented design problems, so prepare for those. Oh, and they're very fast about rejecting you so if you hear from them within like the next day, it's probably bad news. Whole process was a month, averaging one interview per week.
Slow and tedious. You have to wait 2-4weeks for each stages of interview that only takes 1hour. And I'm not sure if there's like 4-6 stages total or something. So you are in this dragged out nerve wrecking anticipation the entire time. And each time u have to somehow get the time off to do this interview. It seems to be a great company but they don't respect the interviewee's time.

Includes basic stuff like how does browser work to how does game networking work etc. a broad range of questions related to games development.
Very detailed and focused on craft, skills and quite a lot of case based questions aimed at understanding how my previous experience lines up with Riots values and expected behaviors.

Apart from my craft skills, about my value alignment
The first round was an intense behavioral with the Senior Engineering Manager. Next round was a take home assessment, and then a follow up interview to discuss the assessment. The follow up only did about 15 minutes about the assessment, and then it was 40 minutes of technical theory questions.
