Process
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks.
Recruiter phone screen, two additional phone screens with an engineer and hiring manager. Mainly discussed my experiences and some brain teaser questions. Hiring manager phone interview went over time for half an hour and was very chill. Was brought onsite for the final interview, but fell short at the first 1v1. Got constructive feedback before the escort on what I could've done better. Recruiter was very supportive and resourceful during onsite prep. Best interview experience thus far!
