Process

Applied online after finding the post on LinkedIn. Interview was split into two sections, an initial tech screening with a single engineer then the main interview split into 4 sections, technical design, technical question, behavioral with engineering manager then recruiter discussion.

Initial tech screening was very straight forward, implement a simple program in a language of your choice.

Second interview went pretty well, all the engineers were very friendly and helpful, seemed to enjoy their jobs and were very receptive with questions. Engineering manager was friendly as well and seemed interested in me. Final sign off with recruiter was friendly too, gave me a heads up the interview went well and that I would hear back soon on a decision and received my offer over the phone the next day.
