"The overall interview was over in a week. I think they were looking to quickly to finish the round. It's for Missionforce. The feedback came in positive but for some reasons unknown and not shared they didn't went ahead with me."

"The whole process was really fast for me, about three weeks end to end, and the ads org was super snappy about scheduling and responses. The recruiter reached out because my background lined up with what they want, and it felt obvious from the start that this team cares a lot more about ads domain fluency than generic big tech interview performance. I had a recruiter screen, a TTL cache phone screen, and then a five-round onsite with one coding round, two behavioral EM rounds, data modeling, and system design. The technicals were mostly straightforward if I could talk through tradeoffs, but the behaviorals were a much harder vibe check than I expected. I am still waiting to hear back, but the biggest thing I took away is that if I can speak confidently about how ads serving, demand, targeting, and capping actually work, they will forgive more than they would at other companies."

"Standard interview process for the most part, however the Sr. Director hiring round was fast paced, very specific, and required executive decision making at speed."

"Technical interviews were mostly fine. 6 rounds, marathon-style. Did all interviews and was ghosted afterwards, no follow ups, no rejection emails, nothing."

"I enjoyed the whole process and transparency throughout. Though it's a bit dated, I'm sure the general premise is still the same. Recruiter phone screen Online coding assessment 45 mins tech interview Onsite with 3 technical interviews and 2 behavioural (1 of my tech was cancelled) Communication was always clear and it took a bit longer since it was over the Christmas break. Got offer shortly after the final and accepted, super glad!"

"The process was straightforward and behavioral. The team was looking for fit for the specific product and the team itself. The previous experiences were heavily emphasised and if they matched the current team's needs, that's what they wanted to verify."
