I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at DigitalOcean (Pune) in Jul 2023
Interview
The experience went well and was full of excitement. All the interviewers were down-to-earth, amicable, and supportive.The interviewers made me feel comfortable right from the beginning, creating a friendly atmosphere that helped ease my nerves. They were genuinely interested in getting to know me and my experiences, making the conversation flow naturally. Their down-to-earth nature made it easy to connect with them on a personal level, and I felt like they truly cared about finding the right fit for the position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What excites me in the technology space currently?
Recruiter reached out and we had a short intro call. He said "I try to get back to everyone within 24 hours", then proceeded to ghost me. Ghosting is unprofessional, rude, and a reflection of how the company treats people. Shame on them for ghosting.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at DigitalOcean (New York, NY) in Jul 2019
Interview
Several interviews over Google Hangouts: one with the recruiter, two with the hiring manager, and four others with various other stakeholders through out the company, such as product managers, support managers, and other tech writers. Each step was followed up with a positive phone call by the recruiter.

Question 1
What are my thoughts on documenting workflows (golden path use cases) that guide users on how to use more than just one of DO products to get a desired result (i.e. mix service documentation)?
