Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks.
Recruiter reached out via LinkedIn. Interview process was fairly standard:
- Recruiter screen
- Hiring manager screen
- System design technical interview
- Multiple behavioral virtual-on-site rounds
From initial contact to offer was about 7 weeks.
