Process

The interview process was pretty in-depth, but it moved quickly.

I applied through Glassdoor and received an initial email requesting a review about a week later.

My initial phone screening interview was the next day and lasted about 30 minutes. It was semi-technical in nature, with questions about Java data structures and algorithms.

I received a request for a Codility challenge the same day.

I took the test 3 days later, and a week after that, I got a request to set up a phone interview with the hiring manager.

The call was technical in nature, focusing on my experiences and what I was looking for in a job.

About 3 days later, I received a request to set up an on-site interview, which I scheduled for a week later.

This consisted of a 4-hour scheduled interview with a spectrum of product team members (management, product manager, UI developer, back-end developer), and some technical questions were involved.

Overall, it was a great experience with a quality group of people who interviewed me.
