I applied through the company website and they got back to me pretty quickly. We had a good chat about the company and what they do. Then, they set up a meeting with someone from the hiring team. But the day before, they canceled, citing a scheduling issue and saying they'd reschedule for the following week. They never did, and I didn't hear back even after I reached out. Pretty unprofessional to ghost someone like that, it really left a bad impression.

First, there was a 15-minute call with the People Relations team where we talked about my resume, past jobs, and why I wanted to work at Stavvy. They were really nice and listened well. Then, I had a 45-minute interview with the Principal Software Engineer where I got to pick my programming language and build a basic class. After that, I interviewed with a Software Engineer II for 45 minutes and worked on some string manipulation methods. Finally, I had a 30-minute chat with Cofounder Josh about Stavvy's mission and our potential impact.
