Candidate-reported interview process

There were 4 interviews with tests and long conversations to understand the company and candidate overall. The second contact is usually with the hiring manager. I had to answer about strategies and how to deal with very different people who are making money on the platform. Diversity was also an important point.

Really disappointing experience. For such a big company, they put me through three interviews but then ghosted me without any feedback, even after I tried reaching out via email and LinkedIn.

it lasted about a month, and i spoke with seven people who i'd be working with closely. the goal was to see if i'd be a good company fit, and also to give me a sense of whether this is a place i'd be excited to work at.
