The interview process at Datadog resembles that of a GAFAM company, which means it is quite extensive.

Although it requires a significant investment of time and effort, and can be frustrating at times, I believe it offers a fantastic opportunity to interact with multiple individuals and gain insight into the company's culture and its people.

Throughout the process, I encountered several stages, including:

• Two technical tests that covered algorithmic problem-solving and system design.
• Three interviews focused on the manager role, which delved into topics such as people management, delivery, and collaboration.
• Two interviews with the hiring manager.

Despite the challenges, the experience provided valuable opportunities to showcase my abilities and understand the company's values and vision.

Overall, I found the process rewarding and informative, making it a truly beneficial experience.
