Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks.

Simple Process. Took about 2 weeks. 1. Phone Interview with recruiter 2. Take home code assignment (1hr-2hr) Not too bad. You won't finish it 3. Hiring manager interview for 1.5hrs; going over resume 4. Meet the team. 3hr of meeting the team, coding the rest of take home assignment, having a discussion with product manager. Pretty low stress
