The whole process is basically 5 interviews. First, a recruiter interview where they just gather standard info, ask about your salary expectations and why you're interested. Then, a technical interview that's not too hard but shows how you think through problems. After that, a system architecture design round where you have to design a system from scratch. Next, a values interview, which is less about fitting in and more about checking your core values, particularly how you'd handle customer interactions if needed. Finally, for staff and principal levels, there's a leadership interview to discuss leadership styles and potential system improvements.
