The interview process took a whole year which was just wild. I went through like 19 different stages, including meetings, phone calls, a personality test, background check, and a drug screen. Honestly, I don't know why I put myself through all of that. There was a lot of back and forth, and the company doesn't even offer a salary. This place is super cult-like, so don't drink the kool aid.

The process was thoughtful and thorough with multiple steps. They were very accommodating by allowing online video interviews. There were no surprises. The experience was very positive and the company seems to be very welcoming.

Behavioral Technical

You’ll talk to their corporate recruiter twice, and if she/he thinks you fit, you’ll have a first rounder. Then, two interviews with the hiring manager. Next, a discussion and shadow session with a team leader. Following that, you’ll meet with the CFO to go over the comp structure. If you make it this far, an offer is likely. Lastly, for onboarding, you'll need to do a drug screening with a urine test.
