I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Checkout.com (Londres, Angleterre) in Jun 2021
Interview
- Initial call with recruiter:
Received information about the role, the company, expectations and benefits. Had all my questions answered. Recruiter was friendly and welcoming.
-Interview with Product Owners
More in-depth about the company, the goals and the vision for the future. Cultural fit questions and a bit about my background and experience.
- Take home challenge:
Was given a task to develop an API for a certain timeframe. Took no more than 2-4 hours, had been given plenty of time to complete. Got feedback surprisingly quick after completion and it was detailed.
- Interview with engineering team:
Questions about the tech test and related tech stack knowledge.

Question 1
Explain decision making around the system design of the API
Great process, everyone extremely friendly and it’s more like a conversation than a test. It was relatively quick to move through the stages.
