The interviewers were professional and the discussions were generally pleasant. The process was straightforward, although communication between stages could have been more consistent and timelines were sometimes unclear. Overall, a decent experience, but greater transparency around next steps would improve the candidate experience.

Question 1
"Walk us through a recent project and explain the technologies, trade-offs, and challenges involved."
I had two interviews, a technical live coding challenge with average logic questions that did indeed go well, and a technical task to be built in a week. The latter was a type project I didn't have many experience of, and technically didn't need experience of to access the job as it was an entry level (graduate) position.

Programming logic questions, build a project in a week task.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Reply in Apr 2026
Interview
Very simple and straightforward, questions about my CV, then about RAG, LLMs, Kubernetes.
Casual conversation, where the interviewer sometimes seemed to think of new questions to ask instead of having them readily prepared.
