Behavioral Technical

I had a relaxed and casual interview experience with some really nice people. The team is fully remote. Some questions required a good understanding of the business, so it's best to do your homework beforehand.

Behavioral Coding System Design

The interview process was pretty straightforward: recruiter screen, then a VP of Eng culture fit chat, followed by coding and systems design interviews. While the process itself wasn't tough, two engineers I spoke with during the coding and systems design parts had really bad attitudes, being super obnoxious and unwilling to budge. Honestly, it felt like a huge waste of my time, and I'm still unsure why they went through the whole thing. Seriously, don't bother. Seems like they're after a staff-level person but only want to pay a senior. Also, junior folks seem to have more influence than the engineering leads. Glad I didn't get an offer, dodged a bullet.

The video interview felt more like a relaxed conversation with jokes, not a formal interview. We reviewed my resume, and I had ample opportunity to ask my own questions.

It was a really weird and drawn-out process. They were all over the place with communication, and then suddenly gave the offer to someone else right when my third interview was supposed to happen.
