I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Deliveroo (Londres, Angleterre) in Jun 2020
Interview
There were a few rounds of interviews with different parts of the business: technical, architectural and team fit. It was very well planned out and I felt very welcome. The offices are very nice.

Interview
1 HR call, 1 Hackerrank test, 1 take home exercise, 1 system design and expecting 1 behaviour interview. Overall not very difficult but you should know the basic DSAs and be comfortable debugging your own code and brush up on some system design concepts.
