They called for 3 rounds, but after reaching the office, they gave me 10 multiple-choice questions related to DS/Algo. I scored 5/10 and they told me I could leave for the day. The first round was done in 15 minutes. It felt like a waste of time to get 10 multiple-choice questions; they could have conducted it online.

Behavioral

The process was pretty simple and wrapped up in about 2-3 weeks. Right away, I saw they really prioritize culture-fit and diversity, with everything else taking a backseat. This totally aligned with my own values, which was great. I appreciated getting to meet a bunch of the important people. All in all, the interview process felt thorough, well-thought-out, and spot-on for the role.

I had a phone screen with a senior team member where they asked a mix of technical and non-technical questions, and I got to learn more about the product. After that, I was invited onsite for an in-person interview. It was about 6 hours long, including a lunch break, and I met with a variety of team members.
