Behavioral Technical
It started with a recruiter call for culture fit and initial approval. Then there were 3 remote calls with peers and the hiring manager, which was a thorough process with updates. The final round had only one other candidate and involved a great call with two senior members from the Portugal office. After that, though, nothing. No communication at all. I had to reach out to recruitment for feedback since it was clear I didn't get it after investing at least 6 hours. It was a poor ending to an otherwise decent process.

Behavioral Technical
I went through four interviews: one with the hiring manager, two with teammates, and one with a director. Each conversation was about 30 minutes, pretty conversational and corporate-style. I made it to the final round and really enjoyed talking to everyone. The recruiter was communicative during the process but then ghosted me after the last interview. I had to follow up three times before they finally told me, two weeks later, that I didn't get the job.

Technical Coding Behavioral
First, there was a screening, then an initial technical screening. After that, we had an in-depth technical round where I had to do a 'whiteboard' style coding assessment to see how I handle problem-solving, coding, and communication under pressure. Finally, there was a behavioral interview.

The interview process was very organized, punctual, and smooth. Honestly, it was one of the best job interview experiences I've had. It was a bit lengthy for a freelance role, but the interviewers made it a great experience. Even though I didn't get the offer, we connected on LinkedIn, and I was satisfied with how it all went.
