After I applied, the talent team reached out and were really professional. They explained the next steps clearly. Then I had a virtual interview on Zoom with two people, which was a good chance to talk about my experience and learn more about the job.

Behavioral Technical

I was contacted and screened by the recruiter, then had a phone interview with the hiring manager about two weeks later. The final stage was a two-hour in-person interview: one hour with the hiring manager and one hour with two team members. After that, they went completely silent. I emailed the recruiter for an update, but never got a response, which I found really unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend this company; they seem unsure of what they want and are unprofessional. They barely have an online presence, which should have been a clue.

Behavioral Technical Coding

The process was great. First there was a non-technical online assessment, then a recruiter screen. After that, I had a non-technical and technical interview with the Director and Manager. The recruiter was super responsive and answered all my questions. The final interview had questions about my past experiences and projects, and also technical questions about hypothetical problems. There was also a string manipulation problem.
