Behavioral Technical Presentation
I applied on LinkedIn and got an email for a phone chat. After that, I had a second phone screen. Then, they offered me an on-site interview at their Berkeley HQ, which was 4 hours long and had 3 discussions. I then had to go to South SF for the final interview. I gave them my reference list during the on-site. HR said a decision would be made, but I haven't heard back in over 4 weeks, even though HR emailed to say I was still being considered.
