Technical was a leetcode medium at most, and the behavioral was easy as well. They just asked questions about situations that I've been in and had me relate it to my skills in the workplace.
I applied online. I interviewed at Chewy (Boston, MA) in Feb 2026
Interview
The process took less than 3 weeks for me. Applied one night and woke up to an OA, which I did the day after. They sent me an email to schedule a recruiter phone call. After that, I set the final interview for about a week after. The interview consisted of a 45 min behavioral and a 45 min technical back-to-back. Technical was a calm Leetcode/Hackerrank medium at most, just talk out your entire process with the interviewer, they will even help you out.
