Process

  1. Online Assessment: Medium to perhaps hard difficulty questions with ample time for completion.

  2. Phone Call with Recruiter: Primarily focused on logistical matters, with no significant behavioral interview questions.

  3. Two 1-Hour Technical Interviews: Included very basic behavioral questions (e.g., "tell me about yourself," "tell me about one of your favorite/most difficult projects"). One typical medium-difficulty Data Structures and Algorithms question with follow-up time/space complexity analysis. Another slightly more challenging question (to me) concerning distributed systems and reliability.

  4. Phone Call(s) with Specific Team Manager(s): I had multiple of these calls. It seems the more interest you express in a variety of areas, the better. Minimal behavioral interview questions were asked; managers predominantly discussed their teams and projects. At this stage, it felt more like managers were trying to recruit me than to assess my experience, though it was likely a combination of both.
