Candidate-reported interview process

The interview process had about 4 rounds. The first was a quick 15 minute call with the senior technical recruiter. After that, there was a 45 minute behavioral interview with the QA manager. Two technical rounds came after, but I wasn't selected, so I don't know how difficult they were. They were friendly and updated me quickly, which is nice. I would apply again.

First there was an initial screening, followed by a 45 minute chat with the Manager. Then I had to come up with acceptance criteria and test cases for a potential feature, and also write automation tests on ruby without access to the website.

The interview process was pretty thorough and covered a lot of what a QA role entails. It started with a recruiter screen call, followed by an interview with the hiring manager. After that, there were three technical interviews that dug into different parts of the QA process, including design, writing unit tests, and doing some hands-on manual testing.
