Process

I submitted my resume via email and heard back from them with a coding problem to solve. I submitted a solution to that. They responded the same day and scheduled a phone interview right away.

The phone interview was entirely coding and technical and lasted about 45 minutes. After a couple of days, they provided positive feedback about the phone screen and invited me onsite for more interviews the following week. They arranged for me to stay at a nice hotel in downtown SF.

I had four 1:1 interviews, all of which were coding interviews. The first interviewer gave me a tour of the company. After a couple of interviews, I met the team I was interviewing for over lunch. Each interview was more difficult than the previous one. At the end, I had a chat with the manager.

I received an email from HR the very next day to schedule a call to convey the interview results.

Questions
