The interview process was awful, showing no respect for the interviewee. The hiring managers were narrow-minded, and it seemed like a company that pushes its employees very hard. I withdrew my application right after the second round interview with the hiring manager.

Behavioral Technical

My recruiter went silent after I emailed them with questions. The hiring manager was 15 minutes late for our technical phone screen, but they were friendly. They asked some basic resume questions. Overall, it felt positive, and they said I'd hear back by the end of the week. I got rejected the following week with no real explanation.

The interview process started with a phone screen, followed by a video interview, and concluded with a half-day onsite interview involving the team, CPO, and CEO. Technical questions were asked from the beginning. The whole process moved along very quickly.
