I applied online for a Bay Area office position. After a couple of days, their recruiter approached me. The first round was a recruiter phone screening.

Then they sent me a machine learning challenge. After the challenge, I talked to two team members separately, mostly discussing the challenge and my background.

Then I was invited onsite for three rounds of technical discussions with team members and the VP. After the interview with the VP, he gave me the impression that they would make an offer.

Later, they asked for another two rounds of remote technical interviews. All went well in my opinion. In the end, they decided to move forward with another candidate. It was a really lengthy process, but everybody was completely professional and respectful.
