You need to go through five technical interview stages: * Live coding * Algorithmic interview * Experience check * Systems design * Introduction to possible teams Between stages, there is usually a week's pause and a long wait for feedbac

There were about four or five interviews: * Talk with HR * Some code interviews at an ascended level of difficulty * Final interview with the project manager and team After all of that, they told me I wasn't experienced enough for this role.

The take-home test and live tech interview were part of the selection process. It went okay; the interviewers were friendly. I was also invited to take a culture fit interview.
