My Android Developer Interview Experience at Wolt
Landing an interview with Wolt was both exhilarating and nerve-wracking. I’d admired the company for its innovative approach to food delivery and its sleek, user-friendly app design. As an Android developer, I was excited about the possibility of joining their team and contributing to such a cutting-edge product.
Phase 1: TA Round
The journey began with a Video screening with a recruiter. A recruiter from Wolt contacted me to discuss my resume and overall experience. She asked about my background in Android development, specific projects I’d worked on, and my motivation for wanting to join Wolt.
This conversation was friendly and informal, serving as a way to gauge my enthusiasm and ensure my experience aligned with the job requirements. By the end of the call, I felt a good connection with the recruiter and was eager to move forward.
Phase 2: Technical Interview
The second round was a 90-minute Interview with the Staff Engineer and Engineering Manager.
They asked me about my recent experience, and why I chose a specific approach and architecture.
A few questions they asked :
What complex Android project do you work on, explain your approach.
Which architecture you are using and why, what are the benefits of MVVM over MVP?
How do you coordinate with cross-functional teams?
How do you control feature rollout?
What do you look into a PR?
They asked some behavioral questions focusing on Team Dynamics.

I got 10 days to complete the assignment, which seemed reasonable.
