Behavioral Coding
Had a recruiter call first, pretty standard stuff. Then a live coding session with the recruiter and another team member. It was a pretty standard coding question involving a loop. The next round was with a Senior Engineer, but he seemed rushed and kept cutting me off or expecting instant answers. I checked Glassdoor and saw similar negative reviews and CEO responses. They made an offer, but when I asked about the engineer's behavior, the offer was rescinded the following week.

Technical Coding Behavioral Technical
First, I had a phone interview where we talked about my resume and the company. About a week later, there was a technical phone screen where I coded two problems in a shared online space with a software engineer. The next step was an in-person interview in San Diego with three software engineers. We chatted about my background, what I'm looking for salary-wise, and why I want to work there. Then, I had to solve three problems on a whiteboard. Kind of a weird moment, one of the interviewers just left the room mid-interview.
