The process was very time consuming.
You should adjust your time with London time with five hours ahead to interview with managers and they mostly busy and you should set up very early morning in est time.
The managers are very serious without no smile and don’t share work flow with you and. it is bad because you need to know if you want to work with them.
The requiters are not professional. They don’t know many basic things.
It was the worst experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the most challenges experience did you have?
Call with recruiter, hiring manager, then schedule 4 technical rounds in the same week, 2 days after last technical section offer is released. Recruiter explained the process and reason behind each section very well, so I can expect what will happen and how I can prepare. Instructions within the round are very clear, interviewers are helpful and collaborative, so even the questions are not that easy the process is actually quite enjoyable and I feel respected. The process is very efficient, from they receive my application to offer accepted takes around a month

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at The Trade Desk in Sept 2025
Interview
Online Assessment, followed by a Hiring Manager interview that was System Design + Behavioral. Didn't pass that stage, was not given a reason, but I assume it was the system design portion. Next stage would have been a loop (2 coding + 1 system design).
