I applied through other source. I interviewed at Fair
Interview
Generic interview. Discussed background, did some whiteboarding, couple of easy programming questions. Started late and went way past scheduled time. Apparently management is amazing, amazing, amazing.
At the end of the day, was told by recruiter that I didn't get job, which is weirdly refreshing.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fair (Santa Monica, CA) in Feb 2019
Interview
I had a great interview process with Fair, from the initial recruiter screen, to the technical phone interview, to the onsite, the team was very professional and great to communicate with. They were also very quick to get back to me which was nice to move quickly in the process.

Interview
From start to finish, Belinda was quick to respond, kind and professional. I never felt like there was a question I couldn't ask or feeling I couldn't express. After a quick phone interview and technical challenge, I was swiftly brought to the on-site interview. As soon as I arrived I was treated to all the amenities I would expect from a large brand corporate headquarters. Their office is in a gorgeous location. The on-site was one of the best I have experienced. During the process, I felt the interviewers focused on learning my actual skillsets, and not the usual bureaucratic BS. My interviewers were communicative, transparent, and more than willing to help make sure I was answering questions in ways they could understand. This office felt more like a place I could be myself and focus on doing work I think is essential, then a place I come to every day to get by. I accepted their offer, and haven't looked back since. Would highly recommend!
