Hiring Process

1. Casual chat

   A 30-minute casual chat with a MeetsMore engineer to tell you more about us and give you the opportunity to ask questions.

2. Coding interview

   A 1-hour coding interview, this will be done in TypeScript and is a real-world scenario, not a LeetCode style problem, we want this stage to be as realistic as possible so using Google and Stack Overflow etc. is fine.

3. System architecture and design

   A 1-hour casual chat with another engineer where you’ll discuss system architecture and design.

4. A chat with the CTO

   A 1-hour casual chat with Fumi-san, our CTO.
