I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Opendoor (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2016
Interview
The interview took about 4 hours. Three rounds are coding questions. You can use your own computer and your preferred language. The code is not difficult and the interviewers are all really nice.
The lunch is good. They are not a very large company, so I think they have a high bar when making the decision. You should did well in order to get the offer.
Failed at HR call. Profile might not be that much match, they are looking for backend leaning role but I did more front end works instead. HR might not look up my resume carefully.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Opendoor (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Very easy and straightforward very nice people enjoyed the conversation that we had a lot and benefitted a lot from it so I would thank them for that
Overall the interview is structured and chill and straightforward with a pretty laid back vibe
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Opendoor
Interview
There was a phone screen which was followed by an onsite interview with 4-5 interviews, some technical, others behavioral. It was interesting that they included some ML-based questions in the SWE interview. Afterward, I heard back pretty quickly.
