Forward Deployed Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
I had one first call with the recruiter (around 20 minutes), then two Skype technical interviews (around 45 minutes each), then three on-site interviews in London (technical, around 1 hour each), and finally two technical Skype interviews with people in Palo Alto (around 1 hour plus each).
Yes, that's eight interviews.
People were nice, the problems were interesting, and the recruiter did a good job organizing everything.
They finally told me they really liked me, but my motivations were not perfectly aligned with the job itself. It was a bit frustrating but understandable.
