J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez BetterUp (Denver, CO) en déc. 2020
Entretien
I heard about the job through a mutual friend that put my in touch with someone that worked at BetterUp. After learning a bit about the company from her I expressed interest in learning more and had a phone screen with the Director of Engineering. I had a call with a member of the recruiting team after that, helping understand what the "on-site" would be like and was great at helping me feel prepared.
The "on-site" (which was really all remote) was 5 interviews over several hours with: Product Manager, Technology Leadership Peer, CTO, Engineering Director, and a Culture interview.
After that I had an interview with one of the founders, and then an interview with the other founder a bit later.
It's a LOT of interviews, but it really helped me feel confident about my decision, and everyone I spoke to was welcoming.

Question 1
I was told to have some "creative questions" prepared to ask of my interviewers.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez BetterUp (Seattle, WA) en nov. 2021
Entretien
First a basic screener followed by a one on one interview with another Engineering Manager (with a shadow). The Interviewer was nice enough but requested that I, off the cuff, independently come up with the 4 pillars of trust, as he had read in a book somewhere. This question is absurd. Even if you google "4 pillars of trust" you come up with at least 6 different answers, none of which match what the interviewer was looking for. This is a bad question to judge someones ability to be an effective Engineering Manager. This was not a conversation talking about trust, it was testing if i had the same definition as the interviewer. This is made worse by the interviewer constantly saying things like "I didn't make this up" and reading from a dictionary when I did finally come up with one of their pillars. I feel like I dodged a bullet with this position.
