History of

Robinhood

Robinhood’s mission is to democratize finance for all. It was founded by two Stanford graduates who had previously built two finance companies selling trading software to hedge funds when they realized Wall Street firms pay almost nothing to trade stocks, while the average American is charged $10 a trade. Robinhood was ranked #26 on Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work in 2018 and a LinkedIn Top Startup in 2019.

Interview Process

Typically 3 to 4 phases. The process can take 2-4 weeks.

1. CodeSignal online assessment

If you are applying to a technical role, you must complete a CodeSignal online assessment consisting of your typical algorithmic problems. Most aren’t too difficult, but you will be partially graded on speed.

2. Initial Phone Screening

After you submit your application, you will go through an initial phone screening with a recruiter to briefly go over your background and see if you should be moved to the next step.

3. Phone Interview

The next step is a more in-depth phone interview. This will typically be with an employee/manager in your department of choice.

4. Video Interview or Onsite Interview

The on-site interview for engineering roles consists of one hour-long round of fairly difficult whiteboarded algorithmic problems, and a relatively easier hour-long programming session.
