Process
I applied through an employee referral. The process took four weeks.
There were three interviews, with two interviewers per round. They focused on peer relationships, team management, and upward and lateral management, with each round focusing on specific topics with different folks. Everyone with whom I spoke was friendly and kind.
Questions
How do you build culture in a remote environment? How do you build trust in a remote environment? Beyond engineering partners, with whom do you believe it would be important to build relationships?
