• Got a referral.
• Met with a hiring manager.

Interview Process:

• Step 1: Applied on the website.
• Step 2: Completed an odd mock-email/collaboration test.
• Step 3: Filled out the technical test.
• Step 4: Skipped the phone screen and scheduled a virtual on-site loop.
• Step 5: Prepared extensively for LP/stories, then had the virtual on-site loop. This mostly aligned with discussions here, with some technical questions and mostly behavioral questions related to the LPs.
• Step 6: The interview outcome was a downlevel from L6 (senior) to L5 (solutions architect).

Offer Process:

• Final: Received an offer, made a counter, received a revised offer, and accepted.

Discussions about technical projects I worked on, including open-ended conversations and in-depth details.

Walking through a design scenario and explaining my problem-solving approach.

LP-based behavioral questions, such as "Tell about a time when..." scenarios, which are common.
