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

A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn. The process consisted of four interviews, after which I received an offer.

• First interview: A screener with the recruiter, where we talked about my experience, expectations, and alignment with company values.
• Second interview: A live coding tech interview with a senior engineer, with no gotchas or "puzzles," just building a simple application and then a discussion about my solution.
• Third interview: Another tech interview, this time a systems design round modeling a system using online drawing tools.
• Fourth interview: An interview with the manager of the team I was about to join, discussing my background, alignment with company and team culture, etc.

The whole process was very transparent, professional, and relatively quick, and the recruiter was quick to answer any questions I had. All interviewers were nice, professional, and reassuring, and it seemed like they really wanted to set me up for success, not to find a reason to fail me. Honestly, this was probably the best, as in least stressful and most fair, recruitment process I've ever been in.

It depends on the stage. There were questions about alignment with company values and about the technical aspects of building modern web applications.
