The interview process was super clear and organized, felt really smooth all the way through. I really liked how the recruiting team was so responsive and paid attention to everything – they communicated ahead of time, gave clear instructions, and handled scheduling like a breeze. All the interviews started and ended right on time, which was great and showed they're professional and respect our time. It was a really good experience overall, and it says a lot about the company's vibe and what they care about.

The whole process was really fast, less than 2 weeks from first contact to offer. The recruiter and coordinator were super helpful and supportive, and the interviewers seemed really into it. It involved an initial phone screen, four 45-minute interviews covering Product, Design, and Engineering, a take-home assignment, and then a final presentation.
