I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Squarespace (New York, NY) in Oct 2021
Interview
I applied online. I had a phone interview with a recruiter who asked me about my past experiences. The questions were very basic and the recruiter said he was impressed and most probably I'll be moving into the second round. But after a few days I received a rejection email. I asked for a feedback but I never heard back. So it was very surprising.

Interview
Very long process, had 6 rounds of interviews including a take-home assignment and a role playing session with stakeholders. The entire process took over 6 weeks which was time consuming. The recruiter was also not very personable, she read off a script super fast and couldn't wait to get the call over with.

Question 1
What's the difference between a server and client?
Met with the recruiter, hiring manager, then moved on to the written assessment. I was given a prompt that seemed more aligned with a product manager role, as mentioned in another review. Once I gave my availability (7-10 days later per the recruiters request) I was promptly told the position was filled and encouraged to apply again.
