I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Redfin in Oct 2020
Interview
Really kind interviewers who genuinely seemed interested in knowing me as a whole vs. just my technical skills. Questions were on the medium-easier end of other leetcode questions I've gotten during the job search process but was still a difficult enough interview.
Standard process of online assessment followed by a onsite interview. The onsite interview consisted of 4 interviews.
Overall, the engineering team seem extremely kind and every question was fair and not thay challenging.
The only negative is the fact that I was told i would hear back by a certain date but had to wait ~3 weeks for a response.
I applied online. I interviewed at Redfin in Dec 2020
Interview
Typical SE process, OA/phone followed by virtual onsite. Nothing crazy or unexpected from the technical problems.
I believe that Redfin strongly values culture, evident from the fact that all the engineers that interviewed me were incredibly kind. However as with any interview experience, your mileage may vary.
sent me an interview (coding challenge that actually asks me to write a project)
Just calling their api and get data and etc. The overall experience was OK. never heard back ever since
