I applied online. I interviewed at Lightspeed (Auckland, ) in Jan 2025
Interview
Terrible slow inconsistent process, will put you through to next stage then withdraw roles. Then come back months later asking if you're still interested. Waste of time and terrible recruiters, I don't understand how they have a job accomplish nothing
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lightspeed (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2025
Interview
The interview process was straightforward and well-organized, consisting of four stages:
Initial screening
Interview with the hiring manager
A 2-hour technical interview (covering both tech stack questions and a live coding session)
Final interview with a senior product manager
I had a great experience with each interviewer — everyone was warm, professional, and easy to talk to. The whole process felt more like a conversation rather than an interrogation, which really helped reduce the usual interview nerves.
Overall, the process gave me a strong impression of the company's culture and team dynamics.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lightspeed in Jul 2024
Interview
HR call, technical interview (coding and code review), system designs interview, Hiring Manger call. Process was quick; took a week to do the latter 3 interviews, which was a bit challenging to prepare for. All interviewers were nice.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Easy coding questions and a harder "code review"
For intermediate roles the code review portion was not as harshly evaluated.
