I applied through a recruiter. The process took over a week.

• Hiring Manager (HM) Round: Discuss your career trajectory, role expectations, and team fit.
• 3 Technical Rounds: Expect deep dives into your coding proficiency, system design capabilities, and problem-solving skills relevant to the specific role.
• Principles Round: Focus on the company's core values.

The topics included an explanation of IaC and deep questions about Terraform, and how you would set up Terraform for a multi-environment setup. There was a question about why you want to join HashiCorp, along with deep questions on Kubernetes.

• Round 1: Architecture questions.
• Round 2: Coding questions (not scripting).
• Round 3: Additional evaluation.
