The whole thing took under a week. First, a 30-minute phone interview with some basic technical screening questions. Then, a longer interview focused on coding and iOS tech experience, which lasted over 2 hours, including talking with two people. The final interview was with the CEO, who wanted to see if I'd fit the company culture and the role. He asked about my long-term commitment. Afterwards, I got a tour of the company and their factory. They extended a verbal offer at the end of that interview, and I got the official email offer about a week later. In total, the process took about 10 days, with some delays due to paperwork and turning away other candidates.

Technical Behavioral

So the process started with HR getting in touch, then I had two in-person interviews. The first one had me chatting with four engineers, three of them asked technical questions and one was more personal. I got called back pretty quickly, within a week, for the second interview. That one was with the software manager and the VP of Engineering.
