Process
The interview process was multi-stage.
It included:
- A phone screen with the hiring manager, followed by an in-person interview with that person.
- One-on-one interviews with each of the two lines of management above the hiring manager.
- A technical screen with a senior team member.
- A one-on-one with one of the Sales Leaders.
The final step in the process was the "SA Challenge," which was a presentation pitching MongoDB to approximately three people, some of whom I had met during the interviews.
