I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Smarty in Nov 2022
Interview
Two rounds, super simple, nice people, mostly focused on previous projects and experience, minimal technical questions, mostly asked code-review style questions and questions about culture, personality, fit, etc. Had me come in person for short interviews at their office

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Smarty in Nov 2024
Interview
Overall was an interesting/weird process. Had a HR phone screen followed by an in person interview with 2 senior developers. They gave me a book that they suggested i read.
I was then invited for another interview with the Owner/CEO which was a whiteboarding session decribing different software projects and practices. He asked about the book i was given to read also. Reference checks were then run (which were good) and then a generic email declining my application. Overall kind of weird experience
