Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. El proceso tomó más de 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Okta (San Francisco, CA) en sept 2015
Entrevista
Interview process started with a recruiter reaching out to me through my linkedin profile. After a round of phone interview, I was invited for a on-site interviews at seattle/ bellevue office. The interviews were pretty standard for software engineering position. I was asked coding questions, questions related to my past projects as well as some system design questions. After these rounds, I was asked to visit headquarters at SFO. During the day, I met around 7-8 people including CTO of the company. For most part, I would say interview questions were straight forward and people were fun and easy to talk to.
The only negative for me was the outcome of the interview and the feedback that followed along the lines of "we don't have level of challenge that you are looking for" - which I found strange considering 1. I was really upfront about type of opportunities I was looking and made sure the recruiter is aware of it at every stage of the interview.
2. Okta being relatively young company, its bit hard to believe they don't have "challenges".
Overall I would say the experience was positive and I would highly recommend the company to anyone interested in identity management cloud based solutions.

Interviewed in summer 2024. Talk with screener about job, role, etc. First stage was talk with Hiring Manager about exp. Second's home work, create backend service using their reqs, nothing complicated but time consuming. 3d stage arch decision talk with one of the engineers from target team (also security related questions, basic topics without depth). 4th and last interview was with Head of Department or some similar role, std behavioral questions, motivation talk, etc. Didn't pass last stage, reason unknown. 1.5 mos from first contact to the end. Neutral since last stage was terrible, weird talk, ghosted results (before were responsive).

What is Cross-Site Scripting and how to prevent it.
Took 6 weeks for a single interview then never heard from again. Would wholeheartedly not recommend them to anyone ever. This is just too much for anyone to have to go through.
