Process

The interview process at Airbnb is the best I've ever seen. The recruiter spent a lot of time providing great information about the company and answering questions, significantly more than the usual 5-10 minutes recruiters from other companies spend. The interviewers were all very friendly. The questions were clearly defined. You were told exactly how much time you had to solve the problem and could use an IDE to compile and test your code. I am not aware of any other company that does all this. It was an awesome interview experience.
