I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Datadog in Mar 2020
Interview
Pretty straight forward with 5 interviews including a Recruiter screen interview, 1 hiring manager interview, manager of manager interview, and 2 business leaders interviews. All were in between 40 min and 1 hour.

Question 1
Don't remember exactly the questions, were around diversity, collaboration with business leaders and performance
It was extremely long, and very unnecessary. The process nearly took 4 months. It also felt like I did well until the very end and then was rejected. I got a very weird feeling from the last interviewer, almost as if she simply did not like me and I guess that just determined me getting a job.

I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Datadog (New York, NY) in Sep 2023
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me via LinkedIn. We set up time pretty easily, she had a link she provided with her schedule. This made setting up time to chat pretty effortlessly.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Datadog in Sep 2021
Interview
There were 8 rounds of interviews stretching across almost 3-4 weeks. I received positive feedback from everyone and was told the team really liked me but they weren’t going to move forward because they still didn’t think I was a fit. Even a half-hearted attempt at constructive feedback would have been appreciated after all that..I still have yet to hear back why I’m not a fit after being told they would provide additional feedback.
