So I went through this interview process, and it kicked off with an HR screen. After that, there was this really substantial take-home assignment. They wanted me to build a whole application from scratch, covering both the backend API and the frontend. Honestly, it probably takes about 6-8 hours to do it properly, which is basically a full workday... Once I sent that in, the next steps were a technical code review with some of the engineers and then a final interview. Talking with the team was cool, and from our chats, I thought I was on the right track. But then I just got a super generic rejection email saying they'd hired someone more senior. I get that hiring is tough, but the process felt like a lot, especially with how much time they asked for so early on. I'd tell them they should maybe rethink their hiring process, maybe cut back on the unpaid work they ask for, or at least be clearer upfront, so people don't end up spending a ton of time without knowing where they stand.

Behavioral Technical
Recruiter reached out and I did the first couple of rounds. They asked for my availability for a third round. Then they went radio silent after I followed up. After that, I just got a standard email saying they're moving on with other candidates. The communication from the hiring team was really bad and unprofessional.

Behavioral Technical
I spoke with Talent Acquisition, Laura, and she asked me industry-related questions. It wasn't a typical recruiter call with surface-level questions, which was nice. We discussed the logistics industry in general and then talked about project management. It was a good conversation. A few days later, Laura contacted me to set up an interview with another team member and even helped me get ready for it by having a quick, unplanned phone call. The whole process was really well put together and gave me a good feeling about the company.

Behavioral Coding System Design Behavioral
The interview had 4 parts. First, a quick chat with the recruiter about you and your experience - pretty much a pass unless you're really underqualified. Then, a coding test on HackerRank, 3 hours for 4 questions, mostly straightforward stuff. Next, an application design interview where you have to map out the architecture for a dashboard and mobile app, covering data flow and external API interactions. Finally, a cultural fit chat with some behavioral questions to see how you'd handle various scenarios.
