Behavioral Technical System Design

Four remote interview rounds happened because the company is fully remote. First, HR checked logistical needs and prep. Then, a manager talked about the job and gauged my interest. After that, a director and product manager assessed general fit, working style, and my managerial approach. Finally, two engineers asked technical questions and presented open-ended design problems.

Behavioral

Talked to 3 people. Felt impersonal, just asking if I've done this and that. Everyone seemed rushed and overworked. They mentioned excessive hours and chaos are normal for their team, which seems to contradict the company's image.
