Process
The interview process consists of three stages:
- Behavioral
- Take-home
- Half-day (a mix of behavioral and technical)
This structure might change from team to team.
Overall, the first half of the process was very good. However, the final interview was somewhat disorganized. Multiple interviewers were late, appeared unprepared, and seemed to be multitasking.

Pros: I have really enjoyed the people and culture since joining Redfin. It is a talented, diverse, and caring group that cares about making good products and taking care of each other. I have been encouraged at every step to take initiative on projects and work that I think are important to the continued growth and improvement of the organization.
Cons: The engineering side has built up an impressive product stack, but is feeling some growing pains as they scale both the platform and the team size. But despite being sometimes frustrating, these are overall good problems to have.
