I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at GoodRx in Oct 2025
Interview
I met with the recruiter and then the hiring manager, and honestly, I really didn’t like how the interview process was handled. They made it sound like it would be a typical hiring-manager conversation focused on my background and experience, the email even said to come prepared for that. But when the interview started, it turned into a surprise 1-hour technical assessment where I had to identify vulnerabilities. The hiring manager said it was ‘chill’ and not a big deal, but that still wasn’t what I was told to expect. Even though I did well and got 3 out of 5 correct, I didn’t move forward. I was caught off guard and not given a fair chance to prepare for a technical round. I honestly think the way it was presented was wrong and unfair.
