Process
I had 6 interviews over ~4 weeks. The first was a brief screener with a recruiter, a culture fit interview with a manager, a technical assessment, an architecting interview, and 2 coding interviews.
Questions
The culture fit was pretty standard. In my technical assessment we mostly just chatted about networking in general and scalability problems I'd encountered. Th architecting session was around indexing/removing bottlenecks in a read heavy situation. The coding questions involved writing some data structures (trees and caches) with unitests.
