I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Walt Disney Company (New York, NY) in Jan 2020
Interview
The best on site interview process encountered so far. The reason I say so is because they focus more on real world experience over spending the whole day solving algos. See my interview experience.
Phone call with recruiter
45 min technical phone screen with engineer
- A lot of OOP questions (maybe 30 min worth)
- Then 15 min coding session
Onsite 4 hours
Onsite 1st hour: System design on whiteboard
- Identify UI components
- Identify web API needed including endpoint, sample request and responses, and http method
- How would you integrate these?
Onsite 2nd hour: Frontend focused
- Build the UI shown to you
- Add event listeners to integrate the provided API
Onsite 3rd hour: Lunch with prospective team director and PM
Onsite 4th hour: Backend focused
- Implement API and classes needed to support Frontend
- identify data models needed and their relationship and constraints
Good luck!
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walt Disney Company (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2024
Interview
- Phone Screen from recruiter, he was 6 minutes late and called me only after I sent a follow-up email that I was waiting for a call.
- Once on the call, he was completely unprepared, mumbling, and couldn't really ask me any questions, or answer mine, if he didn't have an official email I would have thought that it was a scam, but it wasn't.
- He didn't sound excited about the company as well. Couldn't clearly state what kind of information he needed from me (other than the intro), and couldn't tell me about the role. It's the most unprofessional phone screen I've ever had.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Ehhh...so...what did you do?
Eh...sooo....AWS? What was about that?
And so on, it was supposed to be a simple introduction call, but due to the unprofessionalism of a recruiter, it turned out to be a long nonsense call.
