Interview
I only made it to the 1st technical interview. Be prepared to do live coding on a platform called CodeSignal. It has code completion support to some extent. Be very good at fundamental data structures like arrays, dictionaries, stacks, queues and writing recursive functions etc before facing this interview.

Question 1
You can actually find some real interview questions from other reviews, just make sure to go through all of them before the interview.

Interview
Other than the standard recruiter call, there are three main steps that I went through: 1. Phone screen. Leetcode-style interview with some practical domain knowledge questions 2. Hiring Manager chat with some behavioral questions, pretty standard stuff here 3. Onsite, 2 coding rounds and 1 system design, coupled with a hiring manager chat for more behavioral questions Overall the process took ~3 weeks and I thought all the folks I met were driven, technically sharp, and good communicators.

Question 1
I'm under NDA, but the onsite questions were all very fair and practical -- felt like I was basically working alongside a colleague to solve a practical coding challenge together.

Interview
Had the initial discussion with the recruiter. The conversation went south when describing how scrutinizingly long the interviewing process was/is alongside the requirements for a 5 hour panel interview and data structure & algorithm questions. Ultimately, I noted to the recruiter this would not be a good use of my time. The recruiter's attitude turned a tad hostile and unprofessional. It was deemed this would not be a good cultural fit and although I rejected them, they sent me a rejection email for the position (which I found comical).
