HR first reached out saying I was selected for a 10-minute phone interview. Then they set up 5 more rounds over Zoom, spread across 3 days. I met with team members first, then managers on a separate Zoom call because of COVID.

The whole interview thing took like four weeks. First up was a chat with HR, where they asked me some behavioral questions and looked over my resume. Then, I had an on-site interview in San Francisco, an hour long, meeting with two people. They hit me with more technical questions there.
