The Interview Process

Our team believes that interviews are a two-way process and we strive to make them enjoyable without any "gotchas." We do not do LeetCode-style interviews, no one will quiz you on writing a doubly-linked list :D

The interview process starts with a call with a member of our recruiting team who will tell you more about the job and the company. Then, you'll meet the engineering lead, who will walk you through the specifics of the position, the team structure, what we're looking for, and of course, answer any questions you will have. We'll then ask you to show off your skills with a real-world take home exercise (we do not do LeetCode-style interviews, no one will quiz you on writing a doubly-linked list). Finally, we will schedule you for another four or five meetings with other team members to discuss everything from Carta's culture to cross-team collaboration and what you can expect, and what is expected from you.

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing a positive interview experience for every candidate. If accommodations due to a disability or medical condition are needed, please connect with the talent partner via email.
