This took about a month to execute.

1. Phone call with Recruiter where they sell you Indeed.
2. TPS with Karat, outsourced technical phone screens. I would say this is the hardest part, honestly.
3. [Virtual] Onsite. I have no idea how people do these in one day... a. System Design b. "whiteboarding" which was pseudocode into an editor c. "Troubleshooting exercise" where they show you a service that is working and then ask you to fix instances of the same service on your laptop. Then, they just leave you to it. I love things that are actually topical to the job. d. "Programming Exercise" - they give you a superficially simple topical programming thing and leave you alone for 90 minutes. (love it) e. "Code review" - they ask you to critique someone's PR that is also at least superficially topical. f. Resume Deep Dive - they ask you about the stuff on your resume.

Overall, a really fun time. Somewhat challenging, but not in a pointless way. Good stuff.

Here is a working service. Please fix these other ones.
