I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DataStax (New York, NY)
Interview
The process consisted of several individual steps (no "on-site" with multiple interviews in a row) over a couple of weeks. After an initial phone screen, I talked to the hiring manager, then had a "values interview", an online coding interview, and a systems design interview. All interactions were quite enjoyable and the questions fair.
I received what I considered a strong offer but decided against it because I had already received another one that was even better in terms of benefits.
