First, there was a recruiter initial screening. Then, I had a hiring manager meet & greet. After that, there were 2-3 tech deep dive rounds with individual contributors in a 1:1 format. Finally, I had a checkin with the hiring manager, followed by compensation talks with the recruiter.

Behavioral Other
The HR sent me the phone interview invitation. I replied to her and she never replied back after the interview time settled. She never answered any of my questions or emails before the interview. And most importantly, she never showed up at the interview meeting time. Then she asked to reschedule without a sincere apology for the waste of my time. I sent here my new availability but she didn't reply. After 3 days she emailed me back and says they decided to move on with other candidates. Unity is a great company with excellent products but definitely shows no respect for applicants. The worst experience ever.

Coding Technical
The interview process was really smooth. First, the recruiting coordinator called me for a quick call to know my interest and tell me more about the company. Then quickly scheduled my first coding round interview. After that I had one more final round with the member of the team I was interviewing for. The interviewers were really nice and helped me during the interview if I got stuck somewhere. The whole process was enjoyable. The recruiter named Jenna, always got back to me quickly with an update. Despite travelling, she replied to each mail very quickly.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- It was a general coding question for the first round.
