Behavioral Technical Coding
typical tech startup process first 15 minute with recruiter who was really nice and helpful, followed up with a technical session, the person was really nice, we chatted and it never felt like an interview third stage was with business stakeholders and director which went well. And they set up the next steps with C level and others. I was surprised no benefit /compensation was discussed at this point. However they told me due to change in priority they are not hiring for the position anymore. Well though they wasted almost 9 hours but thanks did not waste another 3 hours !!!

Behavioral Technical
Applied online and got a response within a few days. Went through phone/VOIP interviews (HR screen, hiring manager, technical interview), then an on-site for a full interview that lasted 6 hours. It was a good chance to learn about the company and role from various people. Coffee Meets Bagel was good about meeting my needs, flying me in for the on-site since I'm remote. The process was fast, under a month, and they accelerated it near the end for me because I had another offer. They gave me an offer the same day as my on-site, which was helpful.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
I applied online and then heard back via email. Kim was super helpful and told me exactly what to expect in the interviews and how long they might take. First, I had a phone interview with two people. After that, they asked me to come in for a 4-hour onsite interview where I met many of the people I'd be working with. I also had to complete a design exercise, which I submitted, and then I got the job offer.
