I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Londres, Inglaterra) in Aug 2019
Interview
Apply through Linkedin. Got a call from one of the recruiters. Arranged a 30m telephone interview with one of the engineers after 2-3 days. Received positive feedback the day after. Got invited for a 3 hour on site session.
During the onsite session you will get to interview / discuss with different people from different functions
- Product managers
- Senior engineers from the team
- Engineering managers and the CTO if he is there
The interview is not very hard. On the product side they want to assess if you are going to bond with the existing teams and function of the product - thus the term product engineer. You might get some questions about process. agile etc.
The tech interview is again not very thorough, you might get usual questions about reading files and loading them to a DB, questions about what is a ledger (kind of a weird question since this is close to accounting), questions related to DDD and event driven architecture. Nothing difficult
The overall process was not hard, but you get a feeling that they mostly judge you as a character rather than an engineer, if you say the things they want to hear or if they judge that you are good material to fit their culture they seem to be ok.
Feels like they want to just onboard - people and the standards are low, most probably why they said they want to expand massively in numbers.

Interview
I had to submit an application, answer a few questions about why I'm applying for the position and create a few social posts. After this I had a phone interview and after this would have been face-to-face interview, but as I was applying from another country, we did a Zoom call.
