I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HubSpot in Mar 2025
Interview
Overall pretty boring process. People I met throughout the process seemed pretty aloof and overworked, the vibes were definitely off. Take-home, then system design and your basic leet code exercise while sharing your screen. They were all pretty easy and unimaginative, doesn't really gauge much. The system design one was vague with not much direction in the interview or clarity on what you're supposed to solve. Overall your typical large company process that isn't engaging or personalized, but works for them I guess.
