I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IPSY in Jun 2022
Interview
The process took over 2 weeks. There was a initial interview with a manager/tech, 3 technical interviews and a final interview with basic questions like "define yourself", "where do you want to be in 5 years", "why do you want to work for us", "what was your biggest challenge in your career". At the end after spending 5 hours in this extensive process I did not get any feedback, which was extremely odd. Also, no women in the process even though the company had majority of women as end users.

The process for SE at IPSY is 2 telephonic interviews and 4 onsite if local or Hangouts. I had two telephonic interviews and later got an email which said 'My resume doesn't fit for the position!'. Why waste everyone's time?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IPSY in Jan 2019
Interview
1 online coding assessment. 2 phone rounds. 4 round of hangout interviews.
The interviews happened in Jan 2019 but I never received any decision or any follow up mail, which I felt was quite unprofessional.
