Technical System Design
It felt like they weren't really serious about hiring, more like a practice run. The whole thing spanned 2-3 weeks with about 4 or 5 interviews. One of the interviews had a technical question that needed an external dependency, which added extra time. The architecture interview was more about them showing their current system and asking for ideas on how to improve it, and then I had to describe a system design myself.

Coding Coding System Design Behavioral
It started with an initial coding screen with an engineer. Then there were 4 rounds of interviews over 2 days: 2 coding interviews, 1 design interview, and 1 Product Manager Interview. The PM was strongly biased against engineers from Big Tech companies. I think it's a waste of time to put engineers with a certain kind of experience through a loop if you don't want that experience.

Technical System Design Behavioral
The interview started with a phone screen, then moved to a virtual onsite. It was a bit disorganized with invite issues, like not knowing who was interviewing or their roles. There were a couple of technical and system design interviews, plus two others that I'd call behavioral.

- Can you share some of your best practices?
