Candidate-reported interview process

I went through four interviews in total. The last one with the COO was supposed to be casual, but it was just as intense as the others. In the third stage, an interviewer asked me where I was from, which was really inappropriate and racist. I didn't get the job.

It was great! The call went smoothly! They called on time and the interview was very personal! I was very pleased with the interview process.

The interview process was very long, spanning about 3 months with 5 or 6 rounds. It was difficult to get timely responses from the recruiter, with more than two weeks sometimes passing between communications.
