Behavioral Technical Case

It started with a Recruiter or Hiring Manager chat, then a technical interview with the Director of Product. I feel like there were definitely two more rounds after that, which is frankly a bit much these days and really discouraging.

There were 5 interview rounds plus a 30-minute aptitude and attitude assessment. I spoke with a recruiter, a group PM, a designer, an engineering lead, and the VP of product. Each interview was about 30-45 minutes long. The conversations were really engaging, and I liked how enthusiastic they were about the company's mission. In the end, they said I made a good impression, but they had a hiring freeze, so they couldn't move forward.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process had 5 rounds. Everything went smoothly, and communication was good and timely. It was a great experience overall. Mostly talked about skills and past roles. Towards the end, it got harder with some real-time use cases and a need for JTBD knowledge to solve them.
