Process
I applied online and received an email a week later from a recruiter.
The recruiter and I set up a time to talk about the position. After our conversation, the recruiter sent me a HackerRank assessment.
I met with the hiring manager a week afterwards.
Then, I had an onsite interview session a week after that. The onsite was a total of three interviews:
- The first was a technical interview with three interviewers.
- The second was an interview with a director of software engineering.
- The third was an interview with a manager.
