I applied online (I can't remember where).
Within a few days, I spoke to a recruiter on the phone. A week later, I went for an onsite interview (there was no phone screen).
The onsite consisted of three sessions:
There was no coding interview.
At the end of the interview, I asked why no coding interview had been included. The answer was a refreshing, "We looked at your open-source contributions." No other company I interviewed with bothered to look at my publicly available work!
The Q&A with the CTO was casual and focused on personality and career goals, which I also quite enjoyed. Generally, the interview process felt pragmatic and tailored to me personally.
When competing offers came in, my recruiter was responsive throughout. All in all, I enjoyed the process.
I indicated an accepted offer, though I haven't accepted yet.
