An Engineering Manager reached out to me and put me in contact with a recruiter. The process is simple:

• Online assessment (30 mins)
• 1-hour session working through a coding problem with an engineer
• A 4-part interview: 2 soft skills, 1 coding, 1 system design

I found everyone genuinely friendly. The questions weren't too hard (no reversing a linked list, etc.), and the interviewers gave gentle suggestions if I was stuck in the technical portion. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you don't reach a 100% solid and tested solution, because they want to get a sense of your thought process when you're solving a problem. I was lucky enough to work with recruiters who were respectful of my time and kept me up to date throughout the interview process.

Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a colleague.
