This interview process moved really fast, with follow-ups typically the day after each stage. I went through three rounds: an HR screen, a technical interview, and a manager interview. After that, they informed me they were moving on with other candidates. I suspect they had already decided before the technical interview, even though I thought I did well. Based on who they seemingly hired, it feels like they value presentation over technical skills.

The process was very clear and quick, with the recruiter keeping me updated throughout. I really liked how transparent and responsive my contact was. It's obvious Darkrace puts a lot of effort into hiring. Even though I didn't get the job, the process itself was really effective.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
So the process has 3 stages. First, there's a recruiter screening call. After that, you'll do a technical assessment. And then finally, there's an in-person interview that lasts about an hour. It includes a 20-minute role-play customer demo and some scenario-based questions.
