I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Quantcast (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2019
Interview
I applied online and got a Hackerrank challenge with 2 questions and 90min.
I was invited onsite after hackerrank.
I met with 3 Interviewers
1) Background experience and behavioral questions
2) Coding exercise on coderpad (open book, you can search online)
3) Background experience and System design
I did average in all the 3 rounds. They informed that I was rejected on the same day.
May be my background was not relevant to their product.
Overall interview process was great, they were a very good and smart group of people.

Other Software Engineer Interview Reviews for Quantcast
Interview went with 7 interviews but got rejection because one person say no, all other says yes therefore I am confused that majority is saying and it is not about the technical part.
Take home assignment and follow up on the take home. Easy take home and easy follow up. Expect to explain your thought process and extend the take home assignment with another engineer.
Interview Screening - Talked to a hiring manager in a video call talked about the company, my experience, salary expectations, the next interview would have been a technical interview, and then a live coding interview.
