The HR interview was weird, like, the interviewer didn't ask about my motivation, didn't even introduce himself or ask me to introduce myself. The first thing he asked was "tell me about what you did at your previous company." It was really abrupt and I didn't know what to say, so I just talked about some general workflows and he seemed to lose interest right away. He didn't ask any follow-up questions at all. At the end, he said to expect a next step but it never came. Oh, and he was late to the interview.

Behavioral Technical Coding
The interview process was very smooth. It consisted of these steps: First, a phone screening with HR. Then, a video call with the hiring manager. After that, I was given a take-home project to complete within a week. Next, there was a video call with senior developers to go over my solutions. Finally, there was a concluding call with HR and the hiring manager. I received prompt replies from the HR team throughout. Overall, it was a very good experience. The only drawback was the limited time for the technical discussion with the developers; it was only 45 minutes. I think it would have been better if it was longer, perhaps 1 to 1.5 hours.

Behavioral Technical Coding Presentation
Started with a recruiter call, then a tech interview, then a take-home test, another tech interview, an interview with a PM, and finally the director of engineering. The recruiter was great, the first tech interview was chill, like devs talking. The take-home wasn't hard but took forever with unclear instructions. The second tech interview was a mess, they focused on testing like I was a QA, and didn't guide me on the take-home exercise. The PM interview was brief and not very friendly. This was supposed to be the last stage, but they said a candidate postponed, so it took longer for a decision. Then the director wanted to interview me because some questions were unanswered from earlier. That interview got postponed last minute, was average, and still took days for a decision. The whole thing took 2 months. I checked reviews and saw red flags about micromanagement, lack of trust, and demanding work. Even changing teams requires an internal interview.
