I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Clear Street in Jul 2024
Interview
Had an initial chat with the internal recruiter. They put me forward for an interview with the hiring manager, who dived into a coding question. I was allowed to code in my IDE, but there was no way to submit my solution to him via the tools provided unless I copied and pasted all the code into one massive file. It was clear not many interviews have happened yet for this new team and the process was not very well defined or allowed the candidate to show their best. The coding question was too long for an hour interview. After the interview, there was no follow up and not possible to get in touch with anyone at the company to tell me if we are progressing or not (clearly not!). Internal recruiter had left the company and no one else replied to emails. Bad experience overall.
1. 45-minute call with HM
2. Technical Live Coderpad
3. Final Round - System Design and Behavioral
They ghosted after the first round. HM said I was a strong fit for the role and they would follow-up, but they never reached out and ignored multiple emails.
No response after initial interview. The screening process was fine but their interview process consists of a full day onsite, would not invest the time in it if the hiring managers cannot even notify you when you don’t make it through

Don’t waste time interviewing as they only look for reasons to reject the candidate.
