Everything you need to know about your Karat interview
Karat conducts live technical interviews on our clients’ behalf. It’s our job to deliver a structured technical interview with you that is fair, predictive, enjoyable, and above all, human.
Unlike coding tests, phone screens, or outsourced technical recruiting, Karat interviews are aligned to the specific competencies of the job that you are applying for, and you have the support and guidance of a dedicated Interview Engineer to showcase your technical skills.
Interview Engineers are senior software engineers who are passionate about technical interviewing. They are equipped with data-informed best practices and an interviewing infrastructure that highlights candidates’ strengths. Fewer than 2% who apply pass our rigorous evaluation.
Your Karat interview will take place on our technical interview platform, Karat Studio, which is a fully tooled interactive developer environment (IDE). The format is a live paired coding interview with your Karat Interview Engineer.
Your recruiter will send you a link to schedule your Karat interview. Choose whatever time and day work best for you.
Before your Karat interview starts, you’ll be able to log into the Karat Studio technical interview platform. Here, you’ll find a company FAQ, audio check, and verification of your interview time.
Everyone deserves a second chance to make a first impression. If you don’t feel that you did your best, many of our clients will welcome you to schedule a redo of your Karat interview.
