The process was pretty simple. A recruiter found me on LinkedIn and then we had a call. After that, I had a video interview with two managers together. Then, I did a role play with those same two people and the director. The recruiter called me after each step to update me. They even called me on a Friday to let me know they didn't have an answer yet, but they didn't want me waiting in the dark. I really liked how open and communicative the recruiting team was. Honestly, it was the best interview process I've been through. I didn't get the job this time, but I'm hopeful they'll reach out again someday.

They put you in a small room for a 4-hour period where you interview with each manager individually. They mostly ask the same questions, and this could probably be a single group interview lasting about an hour. The whole company feels a bit pretentious.

Behavioral Presentation

It was a pretty simple interview process. We started with a call from the recruiter, then a call with the team manager. After that, I had a call with the manager, director, and someone from the enterprise team. The last part was a presentation about something I'm passionate about, to see my presentation skills.
